Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-1,8-bis(m-tolyloxy)anthracene-9,10-dione CAS 61601-44-3 chemical structure

Description

2-Chloro-1,8-bis(m-tolyloxy)anthracene-9,10-dione (CAS 61601-44-3), molecular formula C28H19ClO4 and molecular weight 454.90 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Chloro-1,8-bis(m-tolyloxy)anthracene-9,10-dione (C28H19ClO4) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 19.0, corresponding to approximately 19 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 454.90 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).

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