Chemical Structure

Diquat Dibromide CAS 85-00-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 264.15 g/mol gives Diquat Dibromide distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Diquat Dibromide (CAS 85-00-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12N2Br, MW 264.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C12H12N2Br, Diquat Dibromide contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 264.15 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Diquat Dibromide meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
