Chemical Structure

Pentyl 2-oxoacetate CAS 84952-68-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Pentyl 2-oxoacetate.

Pentyl 2-oxoacetate (CAS 84952-68-1), molecular formula C7H12O3 and molecular weight 144.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Pentyl 2-oxoacetate (C7H12O3) 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.

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), Pentyl 2-oxoacetate 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.
