As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
6-Oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one (CAS 6705-52-8), molecular formula C26H48O2 and molecular weight 392.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-Oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 392.66 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
