Decylbenzene CAS 104-72-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Decylbenzene 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.

Decylbenzene (CAS 104-72-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H26 and a molecular weight of 218.38 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Decylbenzene (C16H26) is characterized by an aromatic ring 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 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
