3-Oxabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2,4-dione CAS 4462-96-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

3-Oxabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2,4-dione (CAS 4462-96-8), molecular formula C6H6O3 and molecular weight 126.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C6H6O3, 3-Oxabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2,4-dione contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 126.11 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
