Chemical Structure

2,2-Bis(p-chlorophenyl)hexafluoropropane CAS 88964-96-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,2-Bis(p-chlorophenyl)hexafluoropropane is closely related to fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2,2-Bis(p-chlorophenyl)hexafluoropropane (CAS 88964-96-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H8Cl2F6, MW 373.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2,2-Bis(p-chlorophenyl)hexafluoropropane (C15H8Cl2F6) contains fluorine/chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 373.12 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
