Chemical Structure

1-Allyl-4-isopropylbenzene CAS 3897-64-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 1-Allyl-4-isopropylbenzene (CAS 3897-64-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H16, MW 160.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an aromatic ring system, 1-Allyl-4-isopropylbenzene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 160.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
