The occurrence of Methyl 4'-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Methyl 4'-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylate (CAS 773875-92-6), molecular formula C15H11F3O2 and molecular weight 280.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Methyl 4'-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylate (C15H11F3O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
