Chemical Structure

4-Octanol CAS 589-62-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 130.23 g/mol gives 4-Octanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-Octanol (CAS 589-62-8), molecular formula C8H18O and molecular weight 130.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Octanol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 130.23 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.

CATO manufactures 4-Octanol 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.
