Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-N-(3-(methylamino)-1,4-dioxo-1,4-dihydronaphthalen-2-yl)acetamide.
N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-N-(3-(methylamino)-1,4-dioxo-1,4-dihydronaphthalen-2-yl)acetamide (CAS 355406-73-4), molecular formula C20H16Cl2N2O3 and molecular weight 403.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-N-(3-(methylamino)-1,4-dioxo-1,4-dihydronaphthalen-2-yl)acetamide (C20H16Cl2N2O3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
