Chemical Structure

Acid Red 88 CAS 1658-56-6 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 Acid Red 88.

Acid Red 88 (CAS 1658-56-6), molecular formula C20H13N2O4SNa and molecular weight 400.38 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Acid Red 88 (C20H13N2O4SNa) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 Acid Red 88 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.
