Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-benzothiazole CAS 398-99-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-benzothiazole.

2-Methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-benzothiazole (CAS 398-99-2), molecular formula C9H6F3NS and molecular weight 217.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-benzothiazole (C9H6F3NS) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

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.
