Chemical Structure

3,3'-((Methylenebis(oxy))bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(pyrrolidine-2,5-dione) CAS 87367-86-0 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.

3,3'-((Methylenebis(oxy))bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(pyrrolidine-2,5-dione) (CAS 87367-86-0), molecular formula C21H18N2O6 and molecular weight 394.38 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3,3'-((Methylenebis(oxy))bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(pyrrolidine-2,5-dione) (C21H18N2O6) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
