Chemical Structure

Potassium 5-hydroxypentanoate CAS 1240528-38-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Potassium 5-hydroxypentanoate 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 Potassium 5-hydroxypentanoate (CAS 1240528-38-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H9O3K, MW 156.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Potassium 5-hydroxypentanoate (C5H9O3K) 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.

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

CATO manufactures Potassium 5-hydroxypentanoate 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.
