Chemical Structure

Trichlorfon CAS 52-68-6 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 Trichlorfon.

Trichlorfon (CAS 52-68-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H8Cl3O4P and a molecular weight of 257.44 g/mol.

Structurally, Trichlorfon (C4H8Cl3O4P) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, a phosphate ester group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of -0.5, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 257.44 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
