Chemical Structure

2-Vinylanthraquinone CAS 13388-33-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Vinylanthraquinone is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Vinylanthraquinone (CAS 13388-33-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H10O2, MW 234.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 2-Vinylanthraquinone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 234.25 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).

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 2-Vinylanthraquinone 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.
