Chemical Structure

Diphenyl(phenylethynyl)phosphine CAS 7608-17-5 chemical structure

Description

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.

Diphenyl(phenylethynyl)phosphine (CAS 7608-17-5), molecular formula C20H15P and molecular weight 286.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Diphenyl(phenylethynyl)phosphine (C20H15P) contains organophosphorus functionality, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
