Chemical Structure

1-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-dione CAS 2712-68-7 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 1-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-dione (CAS 2712-68-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H5Cl2F3O2, MW 285.05 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-dione is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 285.05 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-dione 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.
