Chemical Structure

1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene CAS 42429-92-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene is closely related to a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene (CAS 42429-92-5), molecular formula C16H14 and molecular weight 206.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene (C16H14) contains a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene 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.
