Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Perfluorohexanoic acid (potassium salt) is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Perfluorohexanoic acid (potassium salt) (CAS 3109-94-2), molecular formula C6HF11O2K and molecular weight 353.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, Perfluorohexanoic acid (potassium salt) (C6HF11O2K) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 353.15 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
