Chemical Structure

3H- Heptafluoropentane-2,4-dione CAS 77968-17-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 3H- Heptafluoropentane-2,4-dione under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

3H- Heptafluoropentane-2,4-dione (CAS 77968-17-3), molecular formula C5HF7O2 and molecular weight 226.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 3H- Heptafluoropentane-2,4-dione is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 226.05 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
