Chemical Structure
Description
(3R,3aR,6S,6aR)-3,6-Bis(oxiran-2-ylmethoxy)hexahydrofuro[3,2-b]furan (CAS 13374-44-2), molecular formula C12H18O6 and molecular weight 258.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, (3R,3aR,6S,6aR)-3,6-Bis(oxiran-2-ylmethoxy)hexahydrofuro[3,2-b]furan (C12H18O6) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 258.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
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.
