The occurrence of 2',7'-Dichlorodihydrofluorescein Diacetate is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 2',7'-Dichlorodihydrofluorescein Diacetate (CAS 4091-99-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C24H16Cl2O7, MW 487.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2',7'-Dichlorodihydrofluorescein Diacetate (C24H16Cl2O7) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
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.
