Chemical Structure

Phenylethyl β-D-galactopyranoside CAS 14861-16-6 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 Phenylethyl β-D-galactopyranoside.

Phenylethyl β-D-galactopyranoside (CAS 14861-16-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H20O6 and a molecular weight of 284.31 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Phenylethyl β-D-galactopyranoside is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 284.31 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).

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 Phenylethyl β-D-galactopyranoside 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.
