Chemical Structure

Benz[a]anthracene-7-methanol CAS 16110-13-7 chemical structure

Description

Benz[a]anthracene-7-methanol (CAS 16110-13-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C19H14O and a molecular weight of 258.31 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Benz[a]anthracene-7-methanol (C19H14O) 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Benz[a]anthracene-7-methanol 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.
