Chemical Structure

3-Heptanol CAS 589-82-2 chemical structure

Description

3-Heptanol (CAS 589-82-2), molecular formula C7H16O and molecular weight 116.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-Heptanol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 116.20 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Heptanol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
