Chemical Structure

Triphenyl(propyl)phosphoniumchloride CAS 16721-43-0 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.

CATO supplies Triphenyl(propyl)phosphoniumchloride (CAS 16721-43-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C21H22PCl, MW 340.83 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Triphenyl(propyl)phosphoniumchloride (C21H22PCl) contains organophosphorus functionality, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
