Chemical Structure

5,5’-Dimethylbiphenyl-2,2’-dicarboxylic Acid CAS 93012-36-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 270.28 g/mol gives 5,5’-Dimethylbiphenyl-2,2’-dicarboxylic Acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5,5’-Dimethylbiphenyl-2,2’-dicarboxylic Acid (CAS 93012-36-3), molecular formula C16H14O4 and molecular weight 270.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 5,5’-Dimethylbiphenyl-2,2’-dicarboxylic Acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 270.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures 5,5’-Dimethylbiphenyl-2,2’-dicarboxylic Acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
