Phloxine B (CAS 18472-87-2), molecular formula C20H2Br4Cl4O5Na and molecular weight 806.64 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Phloxine B (C20H2Br4Cl4O5Na) contains a salt form, a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), Phloxine B 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.
