Chemical Structure

{3-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]phenyl}methanol CAS 79124-73-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of {3-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]phenyl}methanol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

{3-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]phenyl}methanol (CAS 79124-73-5), molecular formula C14H11F3O2 and molecular weight 268.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

{3-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]phenyl}methanol (C14H11F3O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures {3-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]phenyl}methanol 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.
