Chemical Structure

1,2-Octanediol CAS 1117-86-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 1,2-Octanediol (CAS 1117-86-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H18O2, MW 146.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1,2-Octanediol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 146.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,2-Octanediol 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.
