Chemical Structure

Lithium salicylate (7CI) CAS 552-38-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 145.06 g/mol gives Lithium salicylate (7CI) distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Lithium salicylate (7CI) (CAS 552-38-5), molecular formula C7H6O3Li and molecular weight 145.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C7H6O3Li, Lithium salicylate (7CI) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 145.06 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 Lithium salicylate (7CI) 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.
