Chemical Structure

2-Hydroxypropyl octanoate CAS 23794-30-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 202.29 g/mol gives 2-Hydroxypropyl octanoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-Hydroxypropyl octanoate (CAS 23794-30-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H22O3, MW 202.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Hydroxypropyl octanoate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 202.29 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
