The occurrence of (4R,5R)-5-(Methoxycarbonyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-carboxylic acid 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.
CATO supplies (4R,5R)-5-(Methoxycarbonyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 67812-33-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H12O6, MW 204.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of (4R,5R)-5-(Methoxycarbonyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-carboxylic acid (C8H12O6) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
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.
