4,4',4'',4'''-([2,2'-Bi(1,3-dithiolylidene)]-4,4',5,5'-tetrayl)tetrabenzaldehyde (CAS 1639134-02-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C34H20O4S4 and a molecular weight of 620.78 g/mol.
Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4,4',4'',4'''-([2,2'-Bi(1,3-dithiolylidene)]-4,4',5,5'-tetrayl)tetrabenzaldehyde is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 620.78 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.
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.
