Chemical Structure

1,5-Difluoropentane CAS 373-17-1 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.

1,5-Difluoropentane (CAS 373-17-1), molecular formula C5H10F2 and molecular weight 108.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1,5-Difluoropentane (C5H10F2) is characterized by fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
