Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 7-Chloro-2-(naphthalen-1-yl)-4H-chromen-4-one.
7-Chloro-2-(naphthalen-1-yl)-4H-chromen-4-one (CAS 942079-78-9), molecular formula C19H11ClO2 and molecular weight 306.74 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 7-Chloro-2-(naphthalen-1-yl)-4H-chromen-4-one (C19H11ClO2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 14.0, corresponding to approximately 14 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 306.74 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
