Chemical Structure

Ethyl 1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentanecarboxylate CAS 1075-82-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentanecarboxylate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ethyl 1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentanecarboxylate (CAS 1075-82-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H16O3, MW 172.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C9H16O3, Ethyl 1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentanecarboxylate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 172.22 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.

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.
