Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 642.44 g/mol gives 9,9-Bis(2-ethylhexyl)-2,7-diiodo-9H-fluorene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
9,9-Bis(2-ethylhexyl)-2,7-diiodo-9H-fluorene (CAS 278176-08-2), molecular formula C29H40I2 and molecular weight 642.44 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 9,9-Bis(2-ethylhexyl)-2,7-diiodo-9H-fluorene (C29H40I2) is characterized by iodine substitution, 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.
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.
