Tri-p-tolylgallium (CAS 18797-37-0), molecular formula C21H21Ga and molecular weight 343.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, Tri-p-tolylgallium (C21H21Ga) contains a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.5, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 343.11 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
