CATO supplies 1-(Phenylethynyl)-4-styrylbenzene (CAS 21850-30-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H16, MW 280.36 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
1-(Phenylethynyl)-4-styrylbenzene (C22H16) contains 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
