Chemical Structure

Monascorubrin CAS 13283-90-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 382.45 g/mol gives Monascorubrin distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Monascorubrin (CAS 13283-90-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C23H26O5, MW 382.45 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Monascorubrin (C23H26O5) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

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.

CATO manufactures Monascorubrin 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.
