Chemical Structure

Diphenyl(pyridin-4-yl)methanol CAS 1620-30-0 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.

Diphenyl(pyridin-4-yl)methanol (CAS 1620-30-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H15NO and a molecular weight of 261.32 g/mol.

Diphenyl(pyridin-4-yl)methanol (C18H15NO) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

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.
