Chemical Structure

6-Methylheptanol CAS 1653-40-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 6-Methylheptanol 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.

6-Methylheptanol (CAS 1653-40-3), molecular formula C8H18O and molecular weight 130.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 6-Methylheptanol (C8H18O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.

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.
