Chemical Structure
Description
4-(Phenoxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-2-one (CAS 4437-83-6), molecular formula C10H10O4 and molecular weight 194.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 4-(Phenoxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-2-one (C10H10O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 194.18 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(Phenoxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-2-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.
