Chemical Structure

5-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine CAS 349-94-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 181.54 g/mol gives 5-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine (CAS 349-94-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H3ClF3N and a molecular weight of 181.54 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 5-Chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine (C6H3ClF3N) is characterized by a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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