Chemical Structure

6-Butylchrysene CAS 6901-71-9 chemical structure

Description

6-Butylchrysene (CAS 6901-71-9), molecular formula C22H20 and molecular weight 284.39 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C22H20, 6-Butylchrysene contains a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 284.39 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Butylchrysene 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.
