Chemical Structure

Osmium(III) chloride hydrate CAS 14996-60-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Osmium(III) chloride hydrate 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.

Osmium(III) chloride hydrate (CAS 14996-60-2), molecular formula Cl3OsH2O and molecular weight 314.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula Cl3OsH2O, Osmium(III) chloride hydrate contains chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 314.60 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
