Chemical Structure

5-Fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzophenone CAS 237069-80-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-Fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzophenone (CAS 237069-80-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H8F4O, MW 268.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C14H8F4O, 5-Fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzophenone contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 268.21 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzophenone meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
