Dibenzo[d,d′]thieno[3,2-b;4,5-b′]dithiophene (CAS 241-13-4), molecular formula C16H8S3 and molecular weight 296.43 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Dibenzo[d,d′]thieno[3,2-b;4,5-b′]dithiophene (C16H8S3) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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), Dibenzo[d,d′]thieno[3,2-b;4,5-b′]dithiophene 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.
