Chemical Structure

3,8-Dibromo-1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione CAS 602331-25-9 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C12H4Br2N2O2, 3,8-Dibromo-1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 367.98 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies 3,8-Dibromo-1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione (CAS 602331-25-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H4Br2N2O2, MW 367.98 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
