Chemical Structure

Fluorantheno[2,3-c]furan-4,6-dione CAS 13913-61-6 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Fluorantheno[2,3-c]furan-4,6-dione 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.

Fluorantheno[2,3-c]furan-4,6-dione (CAS 13913-61-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H8O3 and a molecular weight of 272.25 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Fluorantheno[2,3-c]furan-4,6-dione is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 272.25 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.
