The occurrence of 2-[3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-N-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}acetamide is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-[3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-N-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}acetamide (CAS 478063-77-3), molecular formula C16H11ClF6N2O and molecular weight 396.71 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
2-[3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-N-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}acetamide (C16H11ClF6N2O) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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), 2-[3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]-N-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}acetamide 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.
