Chemical Structure

2-(4-Methylphenyl)-2-phenyloxirane CAS 80909-79-1 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2-(4-Methylphenyl)-2-phenyloxirane (C15H14O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 210.27 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).

2-(4-Methylphenyl)-2-phenyloxirane (CAS 80909-79-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H14O and a molecular weight of 210.27 g/mol.

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.
