Chemical Structure

1,3-Bis(4-methylphenyl)propan-2-one CAS 70769-70-9 chemical structure

Description

1,3-Bis(4-methylphenyl)propan-2-one (CAS 70769-70-9), molecular formula C17H18O and molecular weight 238.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 1,3-Bis(4-methylphenyl)propan-2-one (C17H18O) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 238.32 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,3-Bis(4-methylphenyl)propan-2-one 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.
