Chemical Structure

2,7-Diiodo-9H-fluorene CAS 16218-28-3 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 2,7-Diiodo-9H-fluorene (CAS 16218-28-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H8I2, MW 418.01 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2,7-Diiodo-9H-fluorene is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 418.01 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.
