Chemical Structure

2,5-Dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl 2-phenoxyacetate CAS 38678-58-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

2,5-Dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl 2-phenoxyacetate (CAS 38678-58-9), molecular formula C12H11NO5 and molecular weight 249.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2,5-Dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl 2-phenoxyacetate (C12H11NO5) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
