Chemical Structure

(4-Isopropyl-phenyl)-phenyl-methanone CAS 18864-76-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (4-Isopropyl-phenyl)-phenyl-methanone is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(4-Isopropyl-phenyl)-phenyl-methanone (CAS 18864-76-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H16O and a molecular weight of 224.30 g/mol.

(4-Isopropyl-phenyl)-phenyl-methanone (C16H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (4-Isopropyl-phenyl)-phenyl-methanone meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
