Chemical Structure

2-(4-(Dimethylamino)benzylidene)-1h-indene-1,3(2h)-dione CAS 21889-13-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-(4-(Dimethylamino)benzylidene)-1h-indene-1,3(2h)-dione (CAS 21889-13-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H15NO2, MW 277.32 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-(4-(Dimethylamino)benzylidene)-1h-indene-1,3(2h)-dione (C18H15NO2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

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.
