Chemical Structure

4-methyl-4H-pyran-2,6-dicarboxylic acid CAS 23046-94-8 chemical structure

Description

4-methyl-4H-pyran-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 23046-94-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8O5 and a molecular weight of 184.15 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4-methyl-4H-pyran-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (C8H8O5) 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).

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