Chemical Structure

2-(Carboxymethyl)cyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid CAS 100378-73-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(Carboxymethyl)cyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid 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.

CATO supplies 2-(Carboxymethyl)cyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid (CAS 100378-73-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10O4, MW 170.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(Carboxymethyl)cyclopent-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid (C8H10O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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.
