Chemical Structure

(R)-5-Oxotetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid CAS 5352-72-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (R)-5-Oxotetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid.

CATO supplies (R)-5-Oxotetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 5352-72-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H6O4, MW 130.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (R)-5-Oxotetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid (C5H6O4) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure. 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. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), (R)-5-Oxotetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid 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.
