Chemical Structure

(R)-2-Hydroxy-2-phenylethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate CAS 40434-87-5 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-phenylethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

(R)-2-Hydroxy-2-phenylethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (CAS 40434-87-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H16O4S and a molecular weight of 292.35 g/mol.

Structurally, (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-phenylethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (C15H16O4S) contains a flavonoid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 292.35 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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).

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.
