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.
3,3-Dimethyl-1-oxo-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran-5-carboxylic acid (CAS 168060-86-4), molecular formula C11H10O4 and molecular weight 206.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 3,3-Dimethyl-1-oxo-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran-5-carboxylic acid (C11H10O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
