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.
Hexyltriphenylphosphonium iodide (CAS 60106-53-8), molecular formula C24H28PI and molecular weight 474.36 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, Hexyltriphenylphosphonium iodide (C24H28PI) contains organophosphorus functionality, iodine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.5, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 474.36 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Hexyltriphenylphosphonium iodide 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.
