Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-3-phenyl-1H-inden-1-one CAS 13304-52-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Methyl-3-phenyl-1H-inden-1-one is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Methyl-3-phenyl-1H-inden-1-one (CAS 13304-52-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H12O, MW 220.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Methyl-3-phenyl-1H-inden-1-one (C16H12O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 220.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Methyl-3-phenyl-1H-inden-1-one 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.
