6-Chloro-2H-pyran-2-one CAS 20357-65-7 chemical structure

Description

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

6-Chloro-2H-pyran-2-one (CAS 20357-65-7), molecular formula C5H3ClO2 and molecular weight 130.53 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 6-Chloro-2H-pyran-2-one (C5H3ClO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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).

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.
