Chemical Structure

1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(p-hydroxyphenyl)ethane CAS 7727-33-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(p-hydroxyphenyl)ethane is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(p-hydroxyphenyl)ethane (CAS 7727-33-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C26H22O4 and a molecular weight of 398.45 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C26H22O4, 1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(p-hydroxyphenyl)ethane contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 398.45 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
