Chemical Structure

Benzyl p-Toluylketone CAS 2001-28-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Benzyl p-Toluylketone (CAS 2001-28-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H14O, MW 210.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Benzyl p-Toluylketone (C15H14O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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), Benzyl p-Toluylketone 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.
