Chemical Structure

2,2,2-Trifluoro-N-(3-hydroxypropyl)acetamide CAS 78008-15-8 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,2,2-Trifluoro-N-(3-hydroxypropyl)acetamide 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.

2,2,2-Trifluoro-N-(3-hydroxypropyl)acetamide (CAS 78008-15-8), molecular formula C5H8F3NO2 and molecular weight 171.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2,2,2-Trifluoro-N-(3-hydroxypropyl)acetamide is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 171.12 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.
