Chemical Structure

2,3-Dimethyl-6-nitroanthracene-9,10-dione CAS 61415-71-2 chemical structure

Description

2,3-Dimethyl-6-nitroanthracene-9,10-dione (C16H11NO4) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

2,3-Dimethyl-6-nitroanthracene-9,10-dione (CAS 61415-71-2), molecular formula C16H11NO4 and molecular weight 281.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
