Chemical Structure

Boron trifluoride-methanol 14% CAS 373-57-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Boron trifluoride-methanol 14% is closely related to a hydroxyl group, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Boron trifluoride-methanol 14% (CAS 373-57-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula BF3CH4O and a molecular weight of 99.85 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, fluorine substitution, Boron trifluoride-methanol 14% is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 99.85 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
