Chemical Structure

2,2'-((1E,1'E)-Ethane-1,2-diylidenebis(azanylylidene))bis(4-methylphenol) CAS 37893-94-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2,2'-((1E,1'E)-Ethane-1,2-diylidenebis(azanylylidene))bis(4-methylphenol) (CAS 37893-94-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H16N2O2, MW 268.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,2'-((1E,1'E)-Ethane-1,2-diylidenebis(azanylylidene))bis(4-methylphenol) is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,2'-((1E,1'E)-Ethane-1,2-diylidenebis(azanylylidene))bis(4-methylphenol) 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.
