Chemical Structure

4,4,4-Trifluorocrotonic acid CAS 71027-02-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 4,4,4-Trifluorocrotonic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 140.06 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.

CATO supplies 4,4,4-Trifluorocrotonic acid (CAS 71027-02-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H3F3O2, MW 140.06 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
