3,5-Dimethyl-alpha-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl Alcohol CAS 220675-94-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3,5-Dimethyl-alpha-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl Alcohol.

3,5-Dimethyl-alpha-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl Alcohol (CAS 220675-94-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H11F3O and a molecular weight of 204.19 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H11F3O, 3,5-Dimethyl-alpha-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl Alcohol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 204.19 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
