Chemical Structure

2-(Hex-5-en-1-yl)-6-hydroxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-one CAS 89567-16-8 chemical structure

Description

2-(Hex-5-en-1-yl)-6-hydroxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-one (CAS 89567-16-8), molecular formula C11H16O3 and molecular weight 196.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-(Hex-5-en-1-yl)-6-hydroxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 196.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-(Hex-5-en-1-yl)-6-hydroxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-one 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.
