Chemical Structure

(5S,6R)-6-Ethyl-5-methyldihydro-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione CAS 202072-86-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (5S,6R)-6-Ethyl-5-methyldihydro-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(5S,6R)-6-Ethyl-5-methyldihydro-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione (CAS 202072-86-4), molecular formula C8H12O3 and molecular weight 156.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (5S,6R)-6-Ethyl-5-methyldihydro-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 156.18 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), (5S,6R)-6-Ethyl-5-methyldihydro-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione 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.
