3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-7-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one CAS 302953-04-4 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.

3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-7-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (CAS 302953-04-4), molecular formula C16H8ClF3O3 and molecular weight 340.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-7-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (C16H8ClF3O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 340.68 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
