Chemical Structure

Trifluoro(methylsulfonyl)methane CAS 421-82-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

Trifluoro(methylsulfonyl)methane (CAS 421-82-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C2H3F3O2S and a molecular weight of 148.10 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C2H3F3O2S, Trifluoro(methylsulfonyl)methane contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 148.10 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO manufactures Trifluoro(methylsulfonyl)methane 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.
