Chemical Structure

D(-)-Fructose CAS 57-48-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of D(-)-Fructose is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

D(-)-Fructose (CAS 57-48-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H12O6 and a molecular weight of 180.16 g/mol.

D(-)-Fructose (C6H12O6) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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

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.
