Chemical Structure

2-hydroxyhept-3-enoic acid CAS 562083-56-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-hydroxyhept-3-enoic acid.

CATO supplies 2-hydroxyhept-3-enoic acid (CAS 562083-56-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H12O3, MW 144.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-hydroxyhept-3-enoic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 144.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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.

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.
