Chemical Structure

Hexanoic-5,5-d2 Acid CAS 55320-68-8 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Hexanoic-5,5-d2 Acid (CAS 55320-68-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H10D2O2, MW 118.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to deuterium isotope labeling, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Hexanoic-5,5-d2 Acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 118.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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