Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5,7-dihydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate CAS 108171-22-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 5,7-dihydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 5,7-dihydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate (CAS 108171-22-8), molecular formula C12H10O6 and molecular weight 250.20 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, Ethyl 5,7-dihydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 250.20 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).

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