4,4''-difluoro-1,1':4',1''-terphenyl (CAS 72864-01-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H12F2 and a molecular weight of 266.28 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C18H12F2, 4,4''-difluoro-1,1':4',1''-terphenyl contains fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 266.28 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
