The occurrence of 3-(Trifluoromethyl)-9H-carbazole is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 3-(Trifluoromethyl)-9H-carbazole (CAS 2467-83-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H8F3N, MW 235.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution, 3-(Trifluoromethyl)-9H-carbazole is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 235.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
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.
