Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 172.18 g/mol gives (1R,3R)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
(1R,3R)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (CAS 111139-10-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12O4 and a molecular weight of 172.18 g/mol.
The molecular framework of (1R,3R)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (C8H12O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (1R,3R)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid 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.
