Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 206.24 g/mol gives 9-Phenanthrenecarboxaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
9-Phenanthrenecarboxaldehyde (CAS 4707-71-5), molecular formula C15H10O and molecular weight 206.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
9-Phenanthrenecarboxaldehyde (C15H10O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. 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.
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.
