Chemical Structure

2-Formylcyclopent-2-ene-1-carboxylic acid CAS 30758-76-0 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 2-Formylcyclopent-2-ene-1-carboxylic acid.

2-Formylcyclopent-2-ene-1-carboxylic acid (CAS 30758-76-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H8O3 and a molecular weight of 140.14 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-Formylcyclopent-2-ene-1-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 140.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

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.
