Chemical Structure

2-(Trifluoromethoxy)ethan-1-ol CAS 362631-84-3 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 2-(Trifluoromethoxy)ethan-1-ol (CAS 362631-84-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C3H5F3O2, MW 130.07 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C3H5F3O2, 2-(Trifluoromethoxy)ethan-1-ol 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 130.07 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.

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.
