Chemical Structure

1-Amino-2,3,4-trichloroanthracene-9,10-dione CAS 5355-87-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-Amino-2,3,4-trichloroanthracene-9,10-dione is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-Amino-2,3,4-trichloroanthracene-9,10-dione (CAS 5355-87-3), molecular formula C14H6Cl3NO2 and molecular weight 326.56 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 1-Amino-2,3,4-trichloroanthracene-9,10-dione is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 326.56 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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-Amino-2,3,4-trichloroanthracene-9,10-dione 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.
