Chemical Structure
Description
(4R,5R)-3,3-difluoro-5-(hydroxymethyl)oxolane-2,4-diol (CAS 861445-88-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H8F2O4 and a molecular weight of 170.11 g/mol.
The molecular framework of (4R,5R)-3,3-difluoro-5-(hydroxymethyl)oxolane-2,4-diol (C5H8F2O4) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure, fluorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
