Chemical Structure

4-Hydroxy-4’-phenoxybenzophenone CAS 78930-16-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

4-Hydroxy-4’-phenoxybenzophenone (CAS 78930-16-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C19H14O3 and a molecular weight of 290.31 g/mol.

Structurally, 4-Hydroxy-4’-phenoxybenzophenone (C19H14O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 13.0, corresponding to approximately 13 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 290.31 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.
