Chemical Structure

2-(Allyloxy)acetaldehyde CAS 55207-76-6 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 2-(Allyloxy)acetaldehyde.

2-(Allyloxy)acetaldehyde (CAS 55207-76-6), molecular formula C5H8O2 and molecular weight 100.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(Allyloxy)acetaldehyde is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 100.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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.
