3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-hydroxybutanenitrile CAS 950476-83-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-hydroxybutanenitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-hydroxybutanenitrile (CAS 950476-83-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H7ClF3NO, MW 249.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-hydroxybutanenitrile (C10H7ClF3NO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 249.62 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
