Chemical Structure

2-(Prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)acetic acid CAS 98021-61-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(Prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)acetic acid.

CATO supplies 2-(Prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)acetic acid (CAS 98021-61-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H6O3, MW 114.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(Prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)acetic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 114.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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-(Prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)acetic acid 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.
