The occurrence of 2-Chloro-4,6-difluoro-1,3,5-triazine is closely related to a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 2-Chloro-4,6-difluoro-1,3,5-triazine (CAS 696-85-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C3ClF2N3, MW 151.50 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2-Chloro-4,6-difluoro-1,3,5-triazine (C3ClF2N3) is characterized by a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Chloro-4,6-difluoro-1,3,5-triazine 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.
