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.

CATO supplies 2-Methoxy-4-methyl-1-(phenylmethoxy)benzene 4-Benzyloxy-3-methoxy-toluene 78136-55-7 (CAS 78136-55-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H16O2, MW 228.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Methoxy-4-methyl-1-(phenylmethoxy)benzene 4-Benzyloxy-3-methoxy-toluene 78136-55-7 (C15H16O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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.
