Chemical Structure

2-(Trifluoromethyl)-1,3-oxathiolan-5-one CAS 79413-31-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(Trifluoromethyl)-1,3-oxathiolan-5-one.

2-(Trifluoromethyl)-1,3-oxathiolan-5-one (CAS 79413-31-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H3F3O2S and a molecular weight of 172.13 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-(Trifluoromethyl)-1,3-oxathiolan-5-one (C4H3F3O2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine 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.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
