As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,2,8,8-Tetramethyl-2,3,4,8,9,10-hexahydropyrano[2,3-f]chromene-6-carbaldehyde 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.
2,2,8,8-Tetramethyl-2,3,4,8,9,10-hexahydropyrano[2,3-f]chromene-6-carbaldehyde (CAS 79359-58-3), molecular formula C17H22O3 and molecular weight 274.35 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,2,8,8-Tetramethyl-2,3,4,8,9,10-hexahydropyrano[2,3-f]chromene-6-carbaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 274.35 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
