Chemical Structure

1,4-Phenylenebis(diphenylmethanol) CAS 57155-57-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

1,4-Phenylenebis(diphenylmethanol) (CAS 57155-57-4), molecular formula C32H26O2 and molecular weight 442.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 1,4-Phenylenebis(diphenylmethanol) is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 442.55 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,4-Phenylenebis(diphenylmethanol) 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.
