γ-Phenyl-γ-butyrolactone CAS 1008-76-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 162.19 g/mol gives γ-Phenyl-γ-butyrolactone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

γ-Phenyl-γ-butyrolactone (CAS 1008-76-0), molecular formula C10H10O2 and molecular weight 162.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H10O2, γ-Phenyl-γ-butyrolactone contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 162.19 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), γ-Phenyl-γ-butyrolactone 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.
