Chemical Structure

4-Hydroxyheptanoate Sodium CAS 17587-29-0(free base) chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Hydroxyheptanoate Sodium 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.

4-Hydroxyheptanoate Sodium (CAS 17587-29-0(free base)) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H13O3Na and a molecular weight of 168.17 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C7H13O3Na, 4-Hydroxyheptanoate Sodium contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 168.17 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Hydroxyheptanoate Sodium 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.
