Chemical Structure

2,6-Diiodocyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione CAS 20389-01-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2,6-Diiodocyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione 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.

2,6-Diiodocyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (CAS 20389-01-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H2I2O2 and a molecular weight of 359.89 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2,6-Diiodocyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (C6H2I2O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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).

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