Chemical Structure

4-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4-phenylbutanoic Acid CAS 79560-18-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4-phenylbutanoic Acid.

4-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4-phenylbutanoic Acid (CAS 79560-18-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H14Cl2O2 and a molecular weight of 309.19 g/mol.

4-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-4-phenylbutanoic Acid (C16H14Cl2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

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.
