Chemical Structure

1,4-Diamino-2,3-dichloroanthraquinone CAS 81-42-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,4-Diamino-2,3-dichloroanthraquinone is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1,4-Diamino-2,3-dichloroanthraquinone (CAS 81-42-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H8Cl2N2O2 and a molecular weight of 307.13 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 1,4-Diamino-2,3-dichloroanthraquinone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 307.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
