Chemical Structure

3-Hydroxymethylhexan-1-ol CAS 62946-68-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-Hydroxymethylhexan-1-ol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 132.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

CATO supplies 3-Hydroxymethylhexan-1-ol (CAS 62946-68-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H16O2, MW 132.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
