Dichloro(1,10-phenanthroline)zinc CAS 14049-94-6 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 Dichloro(1,10-phenanthroline)zinc.

CATO supplies Dichloro(1,10-phenanthroline)zinc (CAS 14049-94-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H8Cl2N2Zn, MW 316.52 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a salt form, a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, Dichloro(1,10-phenanthroline)zinc is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 316.52 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Dichloro(1,10-phenanthroline)zinc 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.
