Chemical Structure

1-(4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)butan-1-one CAS 56465-82-8 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 1-(4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)butan-1-one.

1-(4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)butan-1-one (CAS 56465-82-8), molecular formula C11H11F3O2 and molecular weight 232.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C11H11F3O2, 1-(4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)butan-1-one contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 232.20 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)butan-1-one 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.
