Chemical Structure

Maslinic Acid CAS 4373-41-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 472.70 g/mol gives Maslinic Acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Maslinic Acid (CAS 4373-41-5), molecular formula C30H48O4 and molecular weight 472.70 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Maslinic Acid (C30H48O4) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Maslinic Acid 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.
