4-([1,1'-Biphenyl]-4-yl)-3-hydroxybutanoic acid CAS 6845-17-6

Description

The occurrence of 4-([1,1'-Biphenyl]-4-yl)-3-hydroxybutanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-([1,1'-Biphenyl]-4-yl)-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (CAS 6845-17-6), molecular formula C16H16O3 and molecular weight 256.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4-([1,1'-Biphenyl]-4-yl)-3-hydroxybutanoic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 256.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
