Chemical Structure

Mercury(II) Trifluoromethanesulfonate CAS 49540-00-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Mercury(II) Trifluoromethanesulfonate 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.

Mercury(II) Trifluoromethanesulfonate (CAS 49540-00-3), molecular formula HgCF3O3S and molecular weight 349.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula HgCF3O3S, Mercury(II) Trifluoromethanesulfonate contains a sulfone group, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 349.65 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.

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.
