Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (-)-β-Sesquiphellandrene.
CATO supplies (-)-β-Sesquiphellandrene (CAS 20307-83-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H24, MW 204.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to an aromatic ring system, (-)-β-Sesquiphellandrene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 204.35 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
