Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (Z)-2-(dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-ylidene)acetaldehyde.
(Z)-2-(dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-ylidene)acetaldehyde (CAS 83473-98-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H12O2 and a molecular weight of 236.27 g/mol.
Structurally, (Z)-2-(dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-ylidene)acetaldehyde (C16H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 236.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
CATO manufactures (Z)-2-(dibenzo[b,e]oxepin-11(6H)-ylidene)acetaldehyde 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.
