Chemical Structure

4-Aminonaphthalene-1,2-dione hemihydrate CAS 20814-38-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Aminonaphthalene-1,2-dione hemihydrate 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.

CATO supplies 4-Aminonaphthalene-1,2-dione hemihydrate (CAS 20814-38-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H7NO2H2O, MW 191.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-Aminonaphthalene-1,2-dione hemihydrate (C10H7NO2H2O) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, 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).

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.
