Chemical Structure

Acid Red 51 CAS 568-63-8 chemical structure

Description

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.

Acid Red 51 (CAS 568-63-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H6I4O5Na and a molecular weight of 856.85 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Acid Red 51 (C20H6I4O5Na) is characterized by a salt form, a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional 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 Acid Red 51 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.
