The occurrence of Magnesium Porphyrin is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Magnesium Porphyrin (CAS 13007-95-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H12N4Mg and a molecular weight of 332.65 g/mol.
Magnesium Porphyrin (C20H12N4Mg) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Magnesium Porphyrin meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
