Chemical Structure

(R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)aceticacid CAS 51359-73-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)aceticacid.

CATO supplies (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)aceticacid (CAS 51359-73-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H7F3O3, MW 220.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)aceticacid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 220.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)aceticacid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
