Chemical Structure

Lithium gluconate CAS 60816-70-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Lithium gluconate is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Lithium gluconate (CAS 60816-70-8), molecular formula C6H11O7Li and molecular weight 202.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Lithium gluconate (C6H11O7Li) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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

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.
