Sodium Propionate Hydrate (CAS 6700-17-0), molecular formula C3H5O2Na and molecular weight 96.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, Sodium Propionate Hydrate (C3H5O2Na) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.5, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 96.06 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range.
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.
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.
