Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Methyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(methoxymethyl)propanoate 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.
Methyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(methoxymethyl)propanoate (CAS 359-88-6), molecular formula C6H9F3O3 and molecular weight 186.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Methyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(methoxymethyl)propanoate (C6H9F3O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
