Chemical Structure

Bis(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(2+) CAS 15823-71-9 chemical structure

Description

Bis(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(2+) (CAS 15823-71-9), molecular formula C24H16CuN4 and molecular weight 423.96 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Bis(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(2+) (C24H16CuN4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 19.0, corresponding to approximately 19 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 423.96 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.

CATO manufactures Bis(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(2+) under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
