Chemical Structure

3-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxy)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile CAS 871571-38-9 chemical structure

Description

3-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxy)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (CAS 871571-38-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H5F6NO and a molecular weight of 269.14 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H5F6NO, 3-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxy)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 269.14 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

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.
