The occurrence of 2,4-Diphenyl-4-methyl-1-pentene is closely related to a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 2,4-Diphenyl-4-methyl-1-pentene (CAS 6362-80-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H20, MW 236.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2,4-Diphenyl-4-methyl-1-pentene (C18H20) is characterized by a polycyclic aromatic system. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
