Chemical Structure

2-(4-Formylphenyl)phenol CAS 400744-38-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-(4-Formylphenyl)phenol (CAS 400744-38-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H10O2, MW 198.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-(4-Formylphenyl)phenol (C13H10O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 198.22 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
