Chemical Structure

Phencyclone CAS 5660-91-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 382.45 g/mol gives Phencyclone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Phencyclone (CAS 5660-91-3), molecular formula C29H18O and molecular weight 382.45 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Phencyclone (C29H18O) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 21.0, corresponding to approximately 21 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 382.45 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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), Phencyclone 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.
