Chemical Structure

L-Mannitol CAS 643-01-6 chemical structure

Description

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

L-Mannitol (CAS 643-01-6), molecular formula C6H14O6 and molecular weight 182.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, L-Mannitol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.17 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.

CATO manufactures L-Mannitol 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.
