Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 4-Methyl-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzotrifluoride is closely related to fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
4-Methyl-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzotrifluoride (CAS 778-35-8), molecular formula C8H3F7 and molecular weight 232.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C8H3F7, 4-Methyl-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzotrifluoride contains fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 232.10 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).
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.
