Chemical Structure

Pentafluoropropionic Anhydride CAS 356-42-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Pentafluoropropionic Anhydride 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.

Pentafluoropropionic Anhydride (CAS 356-42-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6F10O3 and a molecular weight of 310.05 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C6F10O3, Pentafluoropropionic Anhydride contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 310.05 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures Pentafluoropropionic Anhydride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
