Chemical Structure

[5]Cycloparaphenylene CAS 96100-94-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 380.48 g/mol gives [5]Cycloparaphenylene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

[5]Cycloparaphenylene (CAS 96100-94-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C30H20 and a molecular weight of 380.48 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C30H20, [5]Cycloparaphenylene contains a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 380.48 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

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.
