Chemical Structure

4-(2-Chloro-1,1,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenol CAS 88553-89-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(2-Chloro-1,1,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(2-Chloro-1,1,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenol (CAS 88553-89-3), molecular formula C8H6ClF3O2 and molecular weight 226.58 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-(2-Chloro-1,1,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 226.58 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
