The occurrence of 6-Methylbenz[a]anthracene-d14 is closely related to deuterium isotope labeling, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 6-Methylbenz[a]anthracene-d14 (CAS 1794945-92-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19D14, MW 256.40 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C19D14, 6-Methylbenz[a]anthracene-d14 contains deuterium isotope labeling, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 256.40 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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 6-Methylbenz[a]anthracene-d14 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.
