Chemical Structure

2-(4-(Benzyloxy)-2,2,3,3-tetrafluorobutoxy)ethanol CAS 663176-03-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(4-(Benzyloxy)-2,2,3,3-tetrafluorobutoxy)ethanol 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.

2-(4-(Benzyloxy)-2,2,3,3-tetrafluorobutoxy)ethanol (CAS 663176-03-2), molecular formula C13H16F4O3 and molecular weight 296.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(4-(Benzyloxy)-2,2,3,3-tetrafluorobutoxy)ethanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 296.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
