Chemical Structure

(2-Carboxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide CAS 60778-64-5 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

(2-Carboxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (CAS 60778-64-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C26H22O2PBr and a molecular weight of 477.34 g/mol.

The molecular framework of (2-Carboxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (C26H22O2PBr) is characterized by a steroid core, organophosphorus functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2-Carboxybenzyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide 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.
