2-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-5,6,7-trihydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one CAS 18003-33-3 chemical structure

Description

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

2-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-5,6,7-trihydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one (CAS 18003-33-3), molecular formula C15H10O7 and molecular weight 302.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-5,6,7-trihydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 302.24 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-5,6,7-trihydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one 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.
