Chemical Structure

Octadecyl 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate CAS 79392-43-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 366.50 g/mol gives Octadecyl 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Octadecyl 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate (CAS 79392-43-1), molecular formula C20H37F3O2 and molecular weight 366.50 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Octadecyl 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate (C20H37F3O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 Octadecyl 2,2,2-trifluoroacetate 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.
