Chemical Structure

4-Carboxy[2.2]paracyclophane CAS 18931-39-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Carboxy[2.2]paracyclophane is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-Carboxy[2.2]paracyclophane (CAS 18931-39-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H16O2, MW 252.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-Carboxy[2.2]paracyclophane (C17H16O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 manufactures 4-Carboxy[2.2]paracyclophane 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.
