Chemical Structure

3,3'-(Quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)dianiline CAS 160903-83-3 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 3,3'-(Quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)dianiline.

3,3'-(Quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)dianiline (CAS 160903-83-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H16N4 and a molecular weight of 312.37 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3,3'-(Quinoxaline-2,3-diyl)dianiline (C20H16N4) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
