3-Hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-one CAS 5870-62-2

Description

The occurrence of 3-Hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-one is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-Hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-one (CAS 5870-62-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H6O2 and a molecular weight of 98.10 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-Hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-one is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 98.10 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).

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.
