Chemical Structure

(3R,4S,5S)-3,4-Dihydroxy-5-((S)-1-hydroxyethyl)dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one CAS 20031-16-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (3R,4S,5S)-3,4-Dihydroxy-5-((S)-1-hydroxyethyl)dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one.

(3R,4S,5S)-3,4-Dihydroxy-5-((S)-1-hydroxyethyl)dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one (CAS 20031-16-7), molecular formula C6H10O5 and molecular weight 162.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, (3R,4S,5S)-3,4-Dihydroxy-5-((S)-1-hydroxyethyl)dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 162.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
