Bis(Trifluoromethyl)Aniline CAS 3700-19-4 chemical structure

Description

Bis(Trifluoromethyl)Aniline (CAS 3700-19-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H5F6N and a molecular weight of 229.12 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Bis(Trifluoromethyl)Aniline (C8H5F6N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
