Chemical Structure

3-cyclopentylbenzoic acid CAS 19920-79-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 3-cyclopentylbenzoic acid 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.

3-cyclopentylbenzoic acid (CAS 19920-79-7), molecular formula C8H6I2O3 and molecular weight 403.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 3-cyclopentylbenzoic acid (C8H6I2O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 403.94 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
