Chemical Structure

Anthracene-1,8-dicarbaldehyde CAS 34824-75-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Anthracene-1,8-dicarbaldehyde.

CATO supplies Anthracene-1,8-dicarbaldehyde (CAS 34824-75-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H10O2, MW 234.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Anthracene-1,8-dicarbaldehyde (C16H10O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 234.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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), Anthracene-1,8-dicarbaldehyde 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.
