rel-(3aR,6aS)-Tetrahydro-1H-spiro[pentalene-2,2'-[1,3]dioxolan]-5(3H)-one (CAS 51716-62-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H14O3 and a molecular weight of 182.22 g/mol.
Structurally, rel-(3aR,6aS)-Tetrahydro-1H-spiro[pentalene-2,2'-[1,3]dioxolan]-5(3H)-one (C10H14O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 182.22 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.
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.
