Pentafluorophenylhydrazine (CAS 828-73-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H3F5N2 and a molecular weight of 198.09 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrile group, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Pentafluorophenylhydrazine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 198.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
CATO manufactures Pentafluorophenylhydrazine 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.
