Chemical Structure

(4-Methoxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium chloride CAS 3462-97-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

(4-Methoxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium chloride (CAS 3462-97-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C26H24OPCl and a molecular weight of 418.90 g/mol.

Structurally, (4-Methoxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium chloride (C26H24OPCl) contains a steroid core, organophosphorus functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 14.5, corresponding to approximately 14 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 418.90 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
