Chemical Structure

Hexanoyl-L-carnitine Chloride CAS 162067-53-0 chemical structure

Description

Hexanoyl-L-carnitine Chloride (CAS 162067-53-0), molecular formula C13H26NO4Cl and molecular weight 295.80 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Hexanoyl-L-carnitine Chloride is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 295.80 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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 Hexanoyl-L-carnitine Chloride 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.
