Chemical Structure

1,8-Dihydroxy-4,5-bis(phenylamino)anthracene-9,10-dione CAS 71873-61-5 chemical structure

Description

1,8-Dihydroxy-4,5-bis(phenylamino)anthracene-9,10-dione (CAS 71873-61-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C26H18N2O4 and a molecular weight of 422.43 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1,8-Dihydroxy-4,5-bis(phenylamino)anthracene-9,10-dione (C26H18N2O4) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,8-Dihydroxy-4,5-bis(phenylamino)anthracene-9,10-dione 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.
