Chemical Structure
Description
(3aR,6aR)-2,2,6-trimethyl-3a,6a-dihydrocyclopenta[d][1,3]dioxol-4-one (CAS 104738-75-2), molecular formula C9H12O3 and molecular weight 168.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (3aR,6aR)-2,2,6-trimethyl-3a,6a-dihydrocyclopenta[d][1,3]dioxol-4-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 168.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
CATO manufactures (3aR,6aR)-2,2,6-trimethyl-3a,6a-dihydrocyclopenta[d][1,3]dioxol-4-one under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
