Chemical Structure

1-(Anthracen-1-yl)ethanone CAS 7396-21-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 1-(Anthracen-1-yl)ethanone under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 1-(Anthracen-1-yl)ethanone (CAS 7396-21-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H12O, MW 220.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

1-(Anthracen-1-yl)ethanone (C16H12O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
