4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-2-(8-(trifluoromethoxy)naphthalen-1-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (CAS 2621937-27-5), molecular formula C17H18BF3O3 and molecular weight 338.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-2-(8-(trifluoromethoxy)naphthalen-1-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (C17H18BF3O3) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-2-(8-(trifluoromethoxy)naphthalen-1-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane 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.
