Chemical Structure

a-Hydroxyheptafluoronaphthalene CAS 5386-30-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of a-Hydroxyheptafluoronaphthalene is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

a-Hydroxyheptafluoronaphthalene (CAS 5386-30-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10HF7O and a molecular weight of 270.10 g/mol.

a-Hydroxyheptafluoronaphthalene (C10HF7O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
