1,3,5-Tri(prop-1-en-2-yl)benzene (CAS 949-47-3), molecular formula C15H18 and molecular weight 198.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a polycyclic aromatic system, 1,3,5-Tri(prop-1-en-2-yl)benzene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 198.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
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.
