Chemical Structure

Chlorhexidine Diacetate CAS 56-95-1 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.

Chlorhexidine Diacetate (CAS 56-95-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C22H30Cl2N10C2H4O2 and a molecular weight of 565.50 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Chlorhexidine Diacetate (C22H30Cl2N10C2H4O2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO manufactures Chlorhexidine Diacetate 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.
