Chemical Structure

9-Benzyl-10-methylanthracene CAS 24451-61-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 9-Benzyl-10-methylanthracene is closely related to a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

9-Benzyl-10-methylanthracene (CAS 24451-61-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C22H18 and a molecular weight of 282.38 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 9-Benzyl-10-methylanthracene (C22H18) is characterized by 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 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 9-Benzyl-10-methylanthracene 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.
