Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,5-Diethoxytetrahydrofuran.
CATO supplies 2,5-Diethoxytetrahydrofuran (CAS 3320-90-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H16O3, MW 160.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C8H16O3, 2,5-Diethoxytetrahydrofuran contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 160.21 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.
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), 2,5-Diethoxytetrahydrofuran 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.
