Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 294.89 g/mol gives Tetrabutylphosphonium chloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Tetrabutylphosphonium chloride (CAS 2304-30-5), molecular formula C16H36PCl and molecular weight 294.89 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C16H36PCl, Tetrabutylphosphonium chloride contains organophosphorus functionality, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 294.89 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
CATO manufactures Tetrabutylphosphonium chloride 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.
