Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,4-Benzofurandione, hexahydro-3a-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)-, [3aR-(3aα,6α,7aα)]-.
2,4-Benzofurandione, hexahydro-3a-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)-, [3aR-(3aα,6α,7aα)]- (CAS 88580-85-2), molecular formula C12H18O3 and molecular weight 210.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 2,4-Benzofurandione, hexahydro-3a-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)-, [3aR-(3aα,6α,7aα)]- (C12H18O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,4-Benzofurandione, hexahydro-3a-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)-, [3aR-(3aα,6α,7aα)]- 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.
