The occurrence of trans-2-[2-Oxo-2-(3-nitrophenyl)ethyl]-cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
trans-2-[2-Oxo-2-(3-nitrophenyl)ethyl]-cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (CAS 733740-77-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H15NO5 and a molecular weight of 277.27 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, trans-2-[2-Oxo-2-(3-nitrophenyl)ethyl]-cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 277.27 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).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), trans-2-[2-Oxo-2-(3-nitrophenyl)ethyl]-cyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid 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.
