Chemical Structure

4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate CAS 78950-29-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 204.15 g/mol gives 4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate (CAS 78950-29-5), molecular formula C9H7F3O2 and molecular weight 204.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate (C9H7F3O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

CATO manufactures 4-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate 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.
