Chemical Structure

Dibenzo[a,k]fluoranthene CAS 84030-79-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Dibenzo[a,k]fluoranthene (CAS 84030-79-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C24H14, MW 302.37 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Dibenzo[a,k]fluoranthene (C24H14) is characterized by 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
