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.
6,13-Dichloropentacene (CAS 59156-92-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C22H12Cl2 and a molecular weight of 347.24 g/mol.
Owing to chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 6,13-Dichloropentacene is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 347.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
