Chemical Structure

Chloropentafluoroacetone CAS 79-53-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Chloropentafluoroacetone 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.

Chloropentafluoroacetone (CAS 79-53-8), molecular formula C3ClF5O and molecular weight 182.48 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Chloropentafluoroacetone (C3ClF5O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
