2-Chlorobenzotrifluoride CAS 88-16-4 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 2-Chlorobenzotrifluoride (CAS 88-16-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H4ClF3, MW 180.55 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-Chlorobenzotrifluoride (C7H4ClF3) contains fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures 2-Chlorobenzotrifluoride 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.
