Chemical Structure

Spiro[fluorene-9,9'-xanthene] CAS 159-62-6 chemical structure

Description

Spiro[fluorene-9,9'-xanthene] (CAS 159-62-6), molecular formula C25H16O and molecular weight 332.39 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Spiro[fluorene-9,9'-xanthene] (C25H16O) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

CATO manufactures Spiro[fluorene-9,9'-xanthene] 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.
