Chemical Structure

6-Chlorobenzo[j]phenanthridine CAS 2178-33-8 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 6-Chlorobenzo[j]phenanthridine is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 263.72 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

6-Chlorobenzo[j]phenanthridine (CAS 2178-33-8), molecular formula C17H10ClN and molecular weight 263.72 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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

CATO manufactures 6-Chlorobenzo[j]phenanthridine 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.
