Chemical Structure

1-(Chloromethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one CAS 31282-95-8 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 1-(Chloromethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one.

1-(Chloromethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one (CAS 31282-95-8), molecular formula C5H8ClNO and molecular weight 133.58 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 1-(Chloromethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 133.58 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(Chloromethyl)pyrrolidin-2-one 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.
