Chemical Structure
Description
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.
2,6(7)-Dimethylanthracene (CAS 1216725-81-3), molecular formula C15H12C2H6 and molecular weight 222.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a polycyclic aromatic system, 2,6(7)-Dimethylanthracene is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.33 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
CATO manufactures 2,6(7)-Dimethylanthracene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
