Chemical Structure

Benzo[a]tetracene CAS 226-88-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Benzo[a]tetracene is closely related to a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Benzo[a]tetracene (CAS 226-88-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H14, MW 278.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Benzo[a]tetracene (C22H14) is characterized by a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Benzo[a]tetracene 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.
