Amyl Butyrate CAS 540-18-1 chemical structure

Description

Amyl Butyrate (CAS 540-18-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H18O2 and a molecular weight of 158.24 g/mol.

Amyl Butyrate (C9H18O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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.

CATO manufactures Amyl Butyrate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
