Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Benzene-1,4-d2.
CATO supplies Benzene-1,4-d2 (CAS 1684-46-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H4D2, MW 80.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to deuterium isotope labeling, an aromatic ring system, Benzene-1,4-d2 is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 80.12 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).
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), Benzene-1,4-d2 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.
