Chemical Structure

4,4,4-TRifluoro-3-hydroxy-3-(trifluoromethyl)butyrophenone CAS 731-00-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4,4,4-TRifluoro-3-hydroxy-3-(trifluoromethyl)butyrophenone.

4,4,4-TRifluoro-3-hydroxy-3-(trifluoromethyl)butyrophenone (CAS 731-00-0), molecular formula C11H8F6O2 and molecular weight 286.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4,4,4-TRifluoro-3-hydroxy-3-(trifluoromethyl)butyrophenone (C11H8F6O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
