Chemical Structure

Perfluorotridecanoic Acid CAS 72629-94-8 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Perfluorotridecanoic Acid (CAS 72629-94-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13HF25O2, MW 664.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Perfluorotridecanoic Acid is typically white to off-white amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 664.11 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Perfluorotridecanoic Acid 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.
