Chemical Structure

Naphth[1,2-a]anthracene CAS 195-06-2 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 Naphth[1,2-a]anthracene.

Naphth[1,2-a]anthracene (CAS 195-06-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C22H14 and a molecular weight of 278.35 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Naphth[1,2-a]anthracene (C22H14) is characterized by a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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 Naphth[1,2-a]anthracene 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.
