Chemical Structure

1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene CAS 75462-59-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene is closely related to fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene (CAS 75462-59-8), molecular formula C9H11ClF6 and molecular weight 268.63 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 1-(chloromethyl)-3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene (C9H11ClF6) contains fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 268.63 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
