Chemical Structure

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroanthracene CAS 1079-71-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 186.29 g/mol gives 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroanthracene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroanthracene (CAS 1079-71-6), molecular formula C14H18 and molecular weight 186.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an aromatic ring system, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroanthracene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 186.29 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.

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.
