Chemical Structure
Description
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.
Ethyl 4-hydroxypentanoate (CAS 6149-46-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H14O3 and a molecular weight of 146.18 g/mol.
Ethyl 4-hydroxypentanoate (C7H14O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 4-hydroxypentanoate 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.
