Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Methyl 2-(anthracen-9-yl)benzoate is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Methyl 2-(anthracen-9-yl)benzoate (CAS 60997-97-9), molecular formula C22H16O2 and molecular weight 312.36 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Methyl 2-(anthracen-9-yl)benzoate (C22H16O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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), Methyl 2-(anthracen-9-yl)benzoate 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.
