Chemical Structure

2-Hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylethanaminium octanoate CAS 71501-52-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 247.38 g/mol gives 2-Hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylethanaminium octanoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylethanaminium octanoate (CAS 71501-52-5), molecular formula C8H15O2C5H14NO and molecular weight 247.38 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylethanaminium octanoate (C8H15O2C5H14NO) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 247.38 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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 2-Hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylethanaminium octanoate 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.
