Bis(cyclopentadiene)ruthenium(II) (CAS 1287-13-4), molecular formula RuC5H5 and molecular weight 166.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Bis(cyclopentadiene)ruthenium(II) (RuC5H5) is characterized by an organic framework. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its non-polar molecular character, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
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.
