Chemical Structure

(+)-Valerianol CAS 20489-45-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 222.37 g/mol gives (+)-Valerianol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies (+)-Valerianol (CAS 20489-45-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H26O, MW 222.37 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

(+)-Valerianol (C15H26O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), (+)-Valerianol 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.
