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.
(S)-5-((R)-1,2-Dihydroxyethyl)-3,4-dihydroxyfuran-2(5H)-one monosodium salt (CAS 58657-35-5), molecular formula C6H7O6Na and molecular weight 198.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, (S)-5-((R)-1,2-Dihydroxyethyl)-3,4-dihydroxyfuran-2(5H)-one monosodium salt is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 198.11 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
