Chemical Structure

alpha-(Trifluoromethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine-6-methanol CAS 923170-94-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

alpha-(Trifluoromethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine-6-methanol (CAS 923170-94-9), molecular formula C10H9F3O3 and molecular weight 234.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, alpha-(Trifluoromethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine-6-methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 234.17 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).

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.
