Chemical Structure

2-Chlorotetrafluoropropionic acid CAS 6189-02-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 180.49 g/mol gives 2-Chlorotetrafluoropropionic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Chlorotetrafluoropropionic acid (CAS 6189-02-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C3HClF4O2 and a molecular weight of 180.49 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-Chlorotetrafluoropropionic acid (C3HClF4O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 180.49 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
