4,5-Dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxathiolane 2,2-dioxide (CAS 4440-89-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H8O4S and a molecular weight of 152.17 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 4,5-Dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxathiolane 2,2-dioxide (C4H8O4S) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure, a sulfone group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.
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.
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.
