The occurrence of Phenylmethaneselenol is closely related to an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Phenylmethaneselenol (CAS 16645-12-8), molecular formula C7H8Se and molecular weight 171.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Phenylmethaneselenol (C7H8Se) is characterized by an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its non-polar molecular character, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures Phenylmethaneselenol 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.
