Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 172.22 g/mol gives 4-Phenylcyclohex-3-en-1-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 4-Phenylcyclohex-3-en-1-one (CAS 51171-71-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12O, MW 172.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
4-Phenylcyclohex-3-en-1-one (C12H12O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Phenylcyclohex-3-en-1-one 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.
