2-Hydroxy-2-(2,3,6-trifluorophenyl)acetic acid CAS 374633-23-5 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.

2-Hydroxy-2-(2,3,6-trifluorophenyl)acetic acid (CAS 374633-23-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H5F3O3 and a molecular weight of 206.12 g/mol.

2-Hydroxy-2-(2,3,6-trifluorophenyl)acetic acid (C8H5F3O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures 2-Hydroxy-2-(2,3,6-trifluorophenyl)acetic acid 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.
