Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 268.31 g/mol gives 1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3-pentanedione distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3-pentanedione (CAS 61828-54-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H16O3, MW 268.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3-pentanedione (C17H16O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), 1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3-pentanedione 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.
