Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 270.66 g/mol gives 2-((2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thio)acetic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 2-((2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thio)acetic acid (CAS 883291-47-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6ClF3O2S, MW 270.66 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-((2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thio)acetic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 270.66 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-((2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thio)acetic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
