Chemical Structure

(2-oxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)triphenylphosphonium bromide CAS 28228-78-6 chemical structure

Description

(2-oxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (CAS 28228-78-6), molecular formula C22H20O2PBr and molecular weight 427.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (2-oxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (C22H20O2PBr) is characterized by a steroid core, organophosphorus functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. 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.

CATO manufactures (2-oxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)triphenylphosphonium bromide 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.
