Chemical Structure

5-Hydroxy-4'-methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid CAS 1261978-76-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 5-Hydroxy-4'-methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid (C14H12O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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.

5-Hydroxy-4'-methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 1261978-76-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H12O3 and a molecular weight of 228.24 g/mol.

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.

CATO manufactures 5-Hydroxy-4'-methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
