Chemical Structure

Heptane-1,2,7-triol CAS 37939-50-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Heptane-1,2,7-triol 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.

Heptane-1,2,7-triol (CAS 37939-50-7), molecular formula C7H16O3 and molecular weight 148.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Heptane-1,2,7-triol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 148.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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.

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.
