Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzenesulfonyl chloride CAS 376637-84-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Methyl-4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzenesulfonyl chloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

CATO supplies 2-Methyl-4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzenesulfonyl chloride (CAS 376637-84-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H6ClF3O3S, MW 274.64 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Methyl-4-(trifluoromethoxy)benzenesulfonyl chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 274.64 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
