Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1,3,6,8-Tetrahydroxy-2-(1-hydroxy-5-oxohexyl)anthracene-9,10-dione.
1,3,6,8-Tetrahydroxy-2-(1-hydroxy-5-oxohexyl)anthracene-9,10-dione (CAS 647839-29-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H18O8 and a molecular weight of 386.35 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 1,3,6,8-Tetrahydroxy-2-(1-hydroxy-5-oxohexyl)anthracene-9,10-dione (C20H18O8) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
