Chemical Structure

Triphenyl(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phosphonium iodide CAS 60521-68-8 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 Triphenyl(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phosphonium iodide.

Triphenyl(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phosphonium iodide (CAS 60521-68-8), molecular formula C20H17F3P and molecular weight 345.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Triphenyl(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phosphonium iodide (C20H17F3P) contains organophosphorus functionality, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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. 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.

CATO manufactures Triphenyl(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phosphonium iodide under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
