CATO manufactures 2-(Triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetic 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.
2-(Triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetic acid (CAS 15677-02-8), molecular formula C20H17O2P and molecular weight 320.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
2-(Triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetic acid (C20H17O2P) contains a steroid core, organophosphorus functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
