Chemical Structure

1,8-Dibromoanthracene-9,10-dione CAS 38313-16-5 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 1,8-Dibromoanthracene-9,10-dione (C14H6Br2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 366.00 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

1,8-Dibromoanthracene-9,10-dione (CAS 38313-16-5), molecular formula C14H6Br2O2 and molecular weight 366.00 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
