Chemical Structure

2-(p-Tolyl)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione CAS 7561-48-0 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 2-(p-Tolyl)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (CAS 7561-48-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H12O2, MW 236.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(p-Tolyl)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (C16H12O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

CATO manufactures 2-(p-Tolyl)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione 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.
