Chemical Structure

2,3-Epoxypropyl acrylate CAS 106-90-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2,3-Epoxypropyl acrylate (CAS 106-90-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H8O3, MW 128.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,3-Epoxypropyl acrylate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 128.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,3-Epoxypropyl acrylate 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.
