As a certified reference material (CRM), MEthyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate 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.
MEthyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate (CAS 773134-23-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H11F3O2 and a molecular weight of 280.24 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, MEthyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]benzoate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 280.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
