Melitracen Impurity 7 CAS 42332-94-5 chemical structure

Description

Melitracen Impurity 7 (CAS 42332-94-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C16H16 and a molecular weight of 208.30 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C16H16, Melitracen Impurity 7 contains a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 208.30 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Melitracen Impurity 7 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.
