Chemical Structure

(4-Chlorophenyl)(5-hydroxycyclopent-1-en-1-yl)methanone CAS 88738-08-3 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of (4-Chlorophenyl)(5-hydroxycyclopent-1-en-1-yl)methanone (C12H11ClO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies (4-Chlorophenyl)(5-hydroxycyclopent-1-en-1-yl)methanone (CAS 88738-08-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H11ClO2, MW 222.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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), (4-Chlorophenyl)(5-hydroxycyclopent-1-en-1-yl)methanone 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.
