Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Cinnamoyl-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione.
CATO supplies 2-Cinnamoyl-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (CAS 15548-49-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H12O3, MW 276.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 2-Cinnamoyl-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (C18H12O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 13.0, corresponding to approximately 13 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 276.29 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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), 2-Cinnamoyl-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-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.
