Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-{4-[(3,4-dichlorophenyl)methoxy]phenyl}-2-[(3-methylphenyl)sulfanyl]ethan-1-one.
CATO supplies 1-{4-[(3,4-dichlorophenyl)methoxy]phenyl}-2-[(3-methylphenyl)sulfanyl]ethan-1-one (CAS 331461-96-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H18Cl2O2S, MW 417.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 1-{4-[(3,4-dichlorophenyl)methoxy]phenyl}-2-[(3-methylphenyl)sulfanyl]ethan-1-one (C22H18Cl2O2S) is characterized by a steroid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
