Chemical Structure

3,4,5,3,5,7,8-Heptamethoxyflavone CAS 21634-52-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

3,4,5,3,5,7,8-Heptamethoxyflavone (CAS 21634-52-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8N2O2 and a molecular weight of 164.16 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3,4,5,3,5,7,8-Heptamethoxyflavone (C8H8N2O2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
