Chemical Structure

4-Methoxy-2-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoyl chloride CAS 886502-42-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 4-Methoxy-2-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoyl chloride (CAS 886502-42-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6ClF3O3, MW 254.59 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Methoxy-2-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoyl chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 254.59 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.

CATO manufactures 4-Methoxy-2-(trifluoromethoxy)benzoyl chloride 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.
