Chemical Structure

Copper(I) 3-methylsalicylate CAS 326477-70-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 214.69 g/mol gives Copper(I) 3-methylsalicylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Copper(I) 3-methylsalicylate (CAS 326477-70-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H7CuO3, MW 214.69 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Copper(I) 3-methylsalicylate (C8H7CuO3) 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 the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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), Copper(I) 3-methylsalicylate 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.
