Chemical Structure

3-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]pyridine CAS 5957-99-3 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 3-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]pyridine (C12H8F3N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 223.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

3-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]pyridine (CAS 5957-99-3), molecular formula C12H8F3N and molecular weight 223.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
