Chemical Structure

1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-propanol CAS 920-66-1 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-propanol (C3H2F6O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies 1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-propanol (CAS 920-66-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C3H2F6O, MW 168.04 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-propanol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
