3-oxo-6-Heptenoic acid methyl ester CAS 30414-57-4 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.

3-oxo-6-Heptenoic acid methyl ester (CAS 30414-57-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12O3 and a molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol.

3-oxo-6-Heptenoic acid methyl ester (C8H12O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-oxo-6-Heptenoic acid methyl ester 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.
