Chemical Structure

1-Cyclopropyl-2-hydroxyethan-1-one CAS 42251-78-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 100.12 g/mol gives 1-Cyclopropyl-2-hydroxyethan-1-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1-Cyclopropyl-2-hydroxyethan-1-one (CAS 42251-78-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H8O2, MW 100.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

1-Cyclopropyl-2-hydroxyethan-1-one (C5H8O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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.
