Chemical Structure

(4-(1-Hydroxyethyl)phenyl)(phenyl)methanone CAS 85696-44-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies (4-(1-Hydroxyethyl)phenyl)(phenyl)methanone (CAS 85696-44-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H14O2, MW 226.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (4-(1-Hydroxyethyl)phenyl)(phenyl)methanone (C15H14O2) 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (4-(1-Hydroxyethyl)phenyl)(phenyl)methanone meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
