Chemical Structure

Zinc orotate CAS 60388-02-5 chemical structure

Description

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

Zinc orotate (CAS 60388-02-5), molecular formula C5H3N2O4Zn and molecular weight 220.47 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Zinc orotate (C5H3N2O4Zn) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.5, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 220.47 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO manufactures Zinc orotate 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.
