CATO manufactures 2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl formate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl formate (CAS 17592-54-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H5NO4 and a molecular weight of 143.10 g/mol.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, 2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl formate is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 143.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
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.
