Chemical Structure

3,5-DINITRO-ORTHO-CRESOL CAS 497-56-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 3,5-DINITRO-ORTHO-CRESOL (CAS 497-56-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6N2O5, MW 198.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 3,5-DINITRO-ORTHO-CRESOL (C7H6N2O5) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,5-DINITRO-ORTHO-CRESOL 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.
