Chemical Structure

1-(Chloromethyl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)benzene CAS 478032-57-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 286.68 g/mol gives 1-(Chloromethyl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)benzene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1-(Chloromethyl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)benzene (CAS 478032-57-4), molecular formula C14H10ClF3O and molecular weight 286.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 1-(Chloromethyl)-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)benzene (C14H10ClF3O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 286.68 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
