Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 7-iodoheptanoate CAS 54005-76-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of tert-Butyl 7-iodoheptanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

tert-Butyl 7-iodoheptanoate (CAS 54005-76-4), molecular formula C11H21IO2 and molecular weight 312.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of tert-Butyl 7-iodoheptanoate (C11H21IO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 tert-Butyl 7-iodoheptanoate 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.
