1,1,1,3,3-Pentachloro-3-fluoropropan-2-one (CAS 2378-08-7), molecular formula C3Cl5FO and molecular weight 248.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C3Cl5FO, 1,1,1,3,3-Pentachloro-3-fluoropropan-2-one contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 248.29 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.
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.
