(3aR,4R,6S,7S,7aR)-4-Methoxy-6-methyl-2-phenyltetrahydro-4H-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-c]pyran-7-ol (CAS 61199-73-3), molecular formula C14H18O5 and molecular weight 266.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
(3aR,4R,6S,7S,7aR)-4-Methoxy-6-methyl-2-phenyltetrahydro-4H-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-c]pyran-7-ol (C14H18O5) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
