Chemical Structure

Tetraphenylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate CAS 426-79-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Tetraphenylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate (CAS 426-79-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C24H20PBF4, MW 426.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Tetraphenylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate (C24H20PBF4) contains organophosphorus functionality, fluorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
