Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (CAS 128446-36-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C56H98O35 and a molecular weight of 1331.36 g/mol.
Structurally, Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (C56H98O35) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 1331.36 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl-β-cyclodextrin 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.
