The molecular framework of Cobalt(1+), bis(2,2′-bipyridine-κN1,κN1′)dichloro-, chloride (1:1) (C20H16Cl2CoN4Cl) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. 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).
Cobalt(1+), bis(2,2′-bipyridine-κN1,κN1′)dichloro-, chloride (1:1) (CAS 23380-38-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H16Cl2CoN4Cl and a molecular weight of 477.66 g/mol.
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.
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.
