Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate CAS 70432-50-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate (CAS 70432-50-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H16O3, MW 172.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate (C9H16O3) 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate 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.
