Chemical Structure

Sodium 5-hydroxydecanoate CAS 71186-53-3 chemical structure

Description

Sodium 5-hydroxydecanoate (CAS 71186-53-3), molecular formula C10H19O3Na and molecular weight 210.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H19O3Na, Sodium 5-hydroxydecanoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 210.25 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 Sodium 5-hydroxydecanoate 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.
