The occurrence of Grubbs Catalyst<SUP>®</SUP> M201 is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Grubbs Catalyst<SUP>®</SUP> M201 (CAS 1307233-23-3), molecular formula C61H63Cl2N2Ru and molecular weight 996.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, Grubbs Catalyst<SUP>®</SUP> M201 is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 996.14 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures Grubbs Catalyst<SUP>®</SUP> M201 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.
