Chemical Structure

4',5'-Dimethyl-1,1':2',1''-terphenyl CAS 23063-12-9 chemical structure

Description

4',5'-Dimethyl-1,1':2',1''-terphenyl (C20H18) 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).

CATO supplies 4',5'-Dimethyl-1,1':2',1''-terphenyl (CAS 23063-12-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C20H18, MW 258.36 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
