CATO supplies Ethyl 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyrate (CAS 5200-38-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H6F6O2, MW 224.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Ethyl 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyrate (C6H6F6O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyrate 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.
