Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Methyl 2-((trifluoromethyl)thio)acetate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 174.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Methyl 2-((trifluoromethyl)thio)acetate (CAS 80783-58-0), molecular formula C4H5F3O2S and molecular weight 174.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
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.
