Chemical Structure

2-Phenyl-4-pentyn-2-ol CAS 6712-35-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Phenyl-4-pentyn-2-ol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Phenyl-4-pentyn-2-ol (CAS 6712-35-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H12O and a molecular weight of 160.21 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-Phenyl-4-pentyn-2-ol (C11H12O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring 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 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).

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), 2-Phenyl-4-pentyn-2-ol 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.
