Uv-Vis Spectrum of 4-Aminobiphenyl

February 20, 2026

Access the UV-Vis Spectrum SIELC Library

If you are looking for optimized HPLC method to analyze 4-Aminobiphenyl check our HPLC Applications library

For optimal results in HPLC analysis, it is recommended to measure absorbance at a wavelength that matches the absorption maximum of the compound(s) being analyzed. The UV spectrum shown can assist in selecting an appropriate wavelength for your analysis. Please note that certain mobile phases and buffers may block wavelengths below 230 nm, rendering absorbance measurement at these wavelengths ineffective. If detection below 230 nm is required, it is recommended to use acetonitrile and water as low UV-transparent mobile phases, with phosphoric acid and its salts, sulfuric acid, and TFA as buffers.
For some compounds, the UV-Vis Spectrum is affected by the pH of the mobile phase. The spectra presented here are measured with an acidic mobile phase that has a pH of 3 or lower.

Application Analytes:
4-Aminobiphenyl

Two isomers of aminobiphenyl were successfully retained and separated in cation-exchange mode on a Primesep S2 column. Primesep S2 column is a HILIC/cation-exchange column that can be operated in HILIC, cation-exchange, and anion-exclusion modes. Method and column are compatible with ELSD/LC/MS and UV and can be used for routine analysis of polar molecules.

Condition

Column Primesep S2, 4.6×150 mm, 5 µm, 100A
Mobile Phase MeCN/H2O – 5/95%
Buffer AmAc pH 5.0 15 mM

HPLC Separation of Aminobiphenyls

April 10, 2005

Aminobiphenyls consist of isomers that differ only in the location of a primary amine group on an aromatic ring. 2-, 3-, and 4-aminobiphenyl are separated on a Primesep D with good peak shape and a short retention time by a mixture of reversed-phase and ion-exclusion interactions. Peak order can be reversed for 2- and 3-aminobiphenyls by using ammonium formate buffer without pH adjustment. The HPLC separations use a mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (MeCN, ACN), ammonium formate buffer or acetic acid (HOAc) with UV detection at 250 nm.

Condition

Column Primesep D, 4.6×150 mm, 5 µm, 100A
Mobile Phase MeCN/H2O – 30/70%
Buffer Formic Acid, AmFm
Flow Rate 1.0 ml/min
Detection UV, 250 nm
