Chemical Structure

5-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-1,3-benzenediol CAS 875647-75-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-1,3-benzenediol (CAS 875647-75-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10O3, MW 154.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 5-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-1,3-benzenediol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.16 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 5-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-1,3-benzenediol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
