Chemical Structure

Ruthenium(III) chloride hydrate CAS 20759-14-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

Ruthenium(III) chloride hydrate (CAS 20759-14-2), molecular formula Cl3RuH2O and molecular weight 225.44 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Ruthenium(III) chloride hydrate (Cl3RuH2O) is characterized by chlorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
