Chemical Structure

3-Cycloheptyl-2-oxopropanoic acid CAS 1491082-54-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Cycloheptyl-2-oxopropanoic acid 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.

3-Cycloheptyl-2-oxopropanoic acid (CAS 1491082-54-2), molecular formula C10H16O3 and molecular weight 184.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-Cycloheptyl-2-oxopropanoic acid (C10H16O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Cycloheptyl-2-oxopropanoic acid 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.
