As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-[2-(β-D-Glucopyranosyloxy)ethyl]-4-hydroxy-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-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.
4-[2-(β-D-Glucopyranosyloxy)ethyl]-4-hydroxy-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-one (CAS 40661-45-8), molecular formula C14H20O8 and molecular weight 316.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-[2-(β-D-Glucopyranosyloxy)ethyl]-4-hydroxy-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 316.30 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.
