(2S,2'S)-2,2'-(1,3,6,8-Tetraoxobenzo[lmn][3,8]phenanthroline-2,7(1H,3H,6H,8H)-diyl)dipropanoic acid (CAS 429692-85-3), molecular formula C20H14N2O8 and molecular weight 410.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of (2S,2'S)-2,2'-(1,3,6,8-Tetraoxobenzo[lmn][3,8]phenanthroline-2,7(1H,3H,6H,8H)-diyl)dipropanoic acid (C20H14N2O8) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing 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).
CATO manufactures (2S,2'S)-2,2'-(1,3,6,8-Tetraoxobenzo[lmn][3,8]phenanthroline-2,7(1H,3H,6H,8H)-diyl)dipropanoic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
