(2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)thiazol-5-yl)methanol (CAS 78450-97-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H3ClF3NOS and a molecular weight of 217.60 g/mol.
(2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)thiazol-5-yl)methanol (C5H3ClF3NOS) contains an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)thiazol-5-yl)methanol 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.
