Chemical Structure

2-Methoxyphenanthrene CAS 13837-48-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Methoxyphenanthrene.

2-Methoxyphenanthrene (CAS 13837-48-4), molecular formula C15H12O and molecular weight 208.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 2-Methoxyphenanthrene is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Methoxyphenanthrene 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.
