Chemical Structure

2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-Octafluorohexane-1,6-diyl bis(2-methylacrylate) CAS 66818-54-0 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 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-Octafluorohexane-1,6-diyl bis(2-methylacrylate).

2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-Octafluorohexane-1,6-diyl bis(2-methylacrylate) (CAS 66818-54-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H14F8O4 and a molecular weight of 398.25 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-Octafluorohexane-1,6-diyl bis(2-methylacrylate) is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 398.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-Octafluorohexane-1,6-diyl bis(2-methylacrylate) 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.
