Chemical Structure

1-[3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]biguanide, HCl CAS 36068-40-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 1-[3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]biguanide, HCl (CAS 36068-40-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H9F6N5HCl, MW 349.66 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution, 1-[3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]biguanide, HCl is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 349.66 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

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.
