The occurrence of 1-(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)-[4,4'-bipyridin]-1-ium chloride is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1-(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)-[4,4'-bipyridin]-1-ium chloride (CAS 71190-35-7), molecular formula C16H11N4O4Cl and molecular weight 358.74 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 1-(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)-[4,4'-bipyridin]-1-ium chloride (C16H11N4O4Cl) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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), 1-(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)-[4,4'-bipyridin]-1-ium chloride 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.
