Chemical Structure

Pentafluorobenzene CAS 363-72-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Pentafluorobenzene 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 Pentafluorobenzene (CAS 363-72-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6HF5, MW 168.06 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Pentafluorobenzene (C6HF5) contains fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 168.06 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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