Methyl 3,3,4,4,4-pentafluoro-2-hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoate CAS 723294-72-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 3,3,4,4,4-pentafluoro-2-hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Methyl 3,3,4,4,4-pentafluoro-2-hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoate (CAS 723294-72-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H9F5O3, MW 284.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Methyl 3,3,4,4,4-pentafluoro-2-hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoate (C11H9F5O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 284.18 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 3,3,4,4,4-pentafluoro-2-hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoate 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.
