The occurrence of 6,8-Dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-en-4-one is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 6,8-Dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-en-4-one (CAS 281676-64-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H6O3, MW 126.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 6,8-Dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-en-4-one is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 126.11 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).
