Chemical Structure

3-Phenyl-1-(o-tolyl)propan-1-one CAS 93433-65-9 chemical structure

Description

3-Phenyl-1-(o-tolyl)propan-1-one (CAS 93433-65-9), molecular formula C16H16O and molecular weight 224.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-Phenyl-1-(o-tolyl)propan-1-one (C16H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), 3-Phenyl-1-(o-tolyl)propan-1-one 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.
