Chemical Structure

alpha-Hydroxy farnesyl phosphonic acid CAS 148796-53-6 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.

alpha-Hydroxy farnesyl phosphonic acid (CAS 148796-53-6), molecular formula C15H27O4P and molecular weight 302.35 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, alpha-Hydroxy farnesyl phosphonic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 302.35 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
