The occurrence of 3-(Benzyloxy)-3'-methyl-1,1'-biphenyl is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
3-(Benzyloxy)-3'-methyl-1,1'-biphenyl (CAS 893737-64-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H18O and a molecular weight of 274.36 g/mol.
Structurally, 3-(Benzyloxy)-3'-methyl-1,1'-biphenyl (C20H18O) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 274.36 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(Benzyloxy)-3'-methyl-1,1'-biphenyl 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.
