Chemical Structure

4'-Pentyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-carboxylic acid CAS 59662-47-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4'-Pentyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-carboxylic acid.

4'-Pentyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 59662-47-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H20O2 and a molecular weight of 268.35 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4'-Pentyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-carboxylic acid (C18H20O2) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
