Chemical Structure

[4-(carboxymethyl)benzyl](triphenyl)phosphonium bromide CAS 142620-97-1 chemical structure

Description

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.

[4-(carboxymethyl)benzyl](triphenyl)phosphonium bromide (CAS 142620-97-1), molecular formula C27H24O2PBr and molecular weight 491.36 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, [4-(carboxymethyl)benzyl](triphenyl)phosphonium bromide (C27H24O2PBr) contains a steroid core, organophosphorus functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 15.5, corresponding to approximately 15 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 491.36 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
