2-(2-Hydroxycyclopentyl)acetic acid CAS 102539-91-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-(2-Hydroxycyclopentyl)acetic acid (CAS 102539-91-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H12O3, MW 144.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-(2-Hydroxycyclopentyl)acetic acid (C7H12O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
