Chemical Structure

2-(Trifluoromethyl)biphenyl CAS 362-59-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-(Trifluoromethyl)biphenyl 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.

CATO supplies 2-(Trifluoromethyl)biphenyl (CAS 362-59-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H9F3, MW 222.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(Trifluoromethyl)biphenyl (C13H9F3) is characterized by fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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