Chemical Structure

Potassium hexacyanoferric(III)ate CAS 13746-66-2 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Potassium hexacyanoferric(III)ate (C6FeN6K) is characterized by a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, 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).

CATO supplies Potassium hexacyanoferric(III)ate (CAS 13746-66-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6FeN6K, MW 251.05 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
