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.
2,3,3',4,4',5,5',6,6',7,7',8,8'-Tridecafluoro-1,1'-binaphthalene (CAS 89883-28-3), molecular formula C20HF13 and molecular weight 488.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 2,3,3',4,4',5,5',6,6',7,7',8,8'-Tridecafluoro-1,1'-binaphthalene (C20HF13) is characterized by fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
