Chemical Structure
Description
Ferrous Citrate (CAS 23383-11-1), molecular formula C6H5O7Fe and molecular weight 244.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C6H5O7Fe, Ferrous Citrate contains a carbohydrate-derived structure; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 244.94 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
CATO manufactures Ferrous Citrate 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.
