Chemical Structure

4-methyl-4-phenylpiperidine CAS 160132-91-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-methyl-4-phenylpiperidine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-methyl-4-phenylpiperidine (CAS 160132-91-2), molecular formula C12H17N and molecular weight 175.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-methyl-4-phenylpiperidine (C12H17N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 175.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
