The occurrence of 3,4-Dichloro-2,2,3,4,4-pentafluorobutanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 3,4-Dichloro-2,2,3,4,4-pentafluorobutanoic acid (CAS 375-07-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4HCl2F5O2, MW 246.95 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 3,4-Dichloro-2,2,3,4,4-pentafluorobutanoic acid (C4HCl2F5O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine 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.
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.
CATO manufactures 3,4-Dichloro-2,2,3,4,4-pentafluorobutanoic 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.
