Chemical Structure

4-(Benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-4-oxobutanoic acid CAS 41764-07-2 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 4-(Benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-4-oxobutanoic acid.

4-(Benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-4-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 41764-07-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H10O5 and a molecular weight of 222.19 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-(Benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-4-oxobutanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.19 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.

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.
