Chemical Structure

1-(4-Acetylphenyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione CAS 36254-39-4 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-(4-Acetylphenyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione.

1-(4-Acetylphenyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (CAS 36254-39-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H11NO3 and a molecular weight of 217.22 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-(4-Acetylphenyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 217.22 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(4-Acetylphenyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione 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.
