Chemical Structure

(3,3-Diisopropoxypropyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide CAS 72931-54-5 chemical structure

Description

(3,3-Diisopropoxypropyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (CAS 72931-54-5), molecular formula C27H34O2PBr and molecular weight 501.44 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C27H34O2PBr, (3,3-Diisopropoxypropyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide contains a steroid core, organophosphorus functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 501.44 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

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.
