(4R,5R)-5-(benzyloxymethyl)-3,3-difluoro-4-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran-2-one CAS 1583260-40-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 264.27 g/mol gives (4R,5R)-5-(benzyloxymethyl)-3,3-difluoro-4-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran-2-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

(4R,5R)-5-(benzyloxymethyl)-3,3-difluoro-4-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran-2-one (CAS 1583260-40-5), molecular formula C12H18F2O4 and molecular weight 264.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(4R,5R)-5-(benzyloxymethyl)-3,3-difluoro-4-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran-2-one (C12H18F2O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
