Chemical Structure

2,6-Dioxo-3,6-dihydro-2h-pyran-4-carboxylic acid CAS 14556-16-2 chemical structure

Description

2,6-Dioxo-3,6-dihydro-2h-pyran-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 14556-16-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H4O5 and a molecular weight of 156.09 g/mol.

2,6-Dioxo-3,6-dihydro-2h-pyran-4-carboxylic acid (C6H4O5) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 2,6-Dioxo-3,6-dihydro-2h-pyran-4-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.
