Chemical Structure

6-(Benzyloxy)hexanoic acid CAS 130892-97-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 222.28 g/mol gives 6-(Benzyloxy)hexanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 6-(Benzyloxy)hexanoic acid (CAS 130892-97-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H18O3, MW 222.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 6-(Benzyloxy)hexanoic acid (C13H18O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

CATO manufactures 6-(Benzyloxy)hexanoic acid 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.
