4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenol (CAS 828-27-3), molecular formula C7H5F3O2 and molecular weight 178.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenol (C7H5F3O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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.
