Description
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
2-Methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl alcohol (CAS 888739-68-2), molecular formula C9H9F3O and molecular weight 190.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
2-Methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl alcohol (C9H9F3O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine 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-Methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl alcohol 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.
