Chemical Structure

1-O-Benzyl-sn-glycerol CAS 17325-85-8 chemical structure

Description

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.

1-O-Benzyl-sn-glycerol (CAS 17325-85-8), molecular formula C10H14O3 and molecular weight 182.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-O-Benzyl-sn-glycerol (C10H14O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures 1-O-Benzyl-sn-glycerol 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.
