Chemical Structure

Difluoromethanesulphonic acid CAS 40856-07-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Difluoromethanesulphonic acid is closely related to a sulfone group, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Difluoromethanesulphonic acid (CAS 40856-07-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula CH2F2O3S, MW 132.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Difluoromethanesulphonic acid (CH2F2O3S) is characterized by a sulfone group, fluorine 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.

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

CATO manufactures Difluoromethanesulphonic 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.
