Chemical Structure

5-Isopropyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxole-4-carboxylic acid CAS 188525-84-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 5-Isopropyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxole-4-carboxylic acid (C7H8O5) 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 the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

5-Isopropyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxole-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 188525-84-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H8O5 and a molecular weight of 172.14 g/mol.

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.

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.
