Chemical Structure

(5-(4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl)furan-2-yl)methanol CAS 476155-29-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 242.19 g/mol gives (5-(4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl)furan-2-yl)methanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

(5-(4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl)furan-2-yl)methanol (CAS 476155-29-0), molecular formula C12H9F3O2 and molecular weight 242.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(5-(4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl)furan-2-yl)methanol (C12H9F3O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.
