Chemical Structure

(1R,4aS,7aS)-Methyl 7-(hydroxymethyl)-1-methoxy-1,4a,5,7a-tetrahydrocyclopenta[c]pyran-4-carboxylate CAS 69977-52-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (1R,4aS,7aS)-Methyl 7-(hydroxymethyl)-1-methoxy-1,4a,5,7a-tetrahydrocyclopenta[c]pyran-4-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 240.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

(1R,4aS,7aS)-Methyl 7-(hydroxymethyl)-1-methoxy-1,4a,5,7a-tetrahydrocyclopenta[c]pyran-4-carboxylate (CAS 69977-52-2), molecular formula C12H16O5 and molecular weight 240.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
