Chemical Structure

3-(Trifluoromethyl)dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-one CAS 4504-94-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-(Trifluoromethyl)dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-one is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-(Trifluoromethyl)dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-one (CAS 4504-94-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H9F3O2 and a molecular weight of 278.23 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 3-(Trifluoromethyl)dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 278.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(Trifluoromethyl)dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-one 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.
