The occurrence of 2-[(2S)-oxiran-2-yl]ethan-1-ol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 2-[(2S)-oxiran-2-yl]ethan-1-ol (CAS 95404-59-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H8O2, MW 88.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2-[(2S)-oxiran-2-yl]ethan-1-ol (C4H8O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.
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), 2-[(2S)-oxiran-2-yl]ethan-1-ol 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.
