Chemical Structure

6-Chloro-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-carbonyl chloride CAS 17274-75-8 chemical structure

Description

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.

6-Chloro-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-carbonyl chloride (CAS 17274-75-8), molecular formula C6H2Cl2O4 and molecular weight 208.98 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-Chloro-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-carbonyl chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.98 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Chloro-4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-carbonyl chloride 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.
