Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Perfluoro(4,4'-diphenoxybiphenyl).
Perfluoro(4,4'-diphenoxybiphenyl) (CAS 14055-56-2), molecular formula C24F18O2 and molecular weight 662.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Perfluoro(4,4'-diphenoxybiphenyl) (C24F18O2) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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).
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.
