Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 340.37 g/mol gives 3,10-Dimethylquinolino[2,3-b]acridine-7,14(5H,12H)-dione distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 3,10-Dimethylquinolino[2,3-b]acridine-7,14(5H,12H)-dione (CAS 16043-40-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H16N2O2, MW 340.37 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 3,10-Dimethylquinolino[2,3-b]acridine-7,14(5H,12H)-dione (C22H16N2O2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, 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 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,10-Dimethylquinolino[2,3-b]acridine-7,14(5H,12H)-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.
