Chemical Structure

(2S,3S)-Epoxygeraniol CAS 82188-73-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (2S,3S)-Epoxygeraniol 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.

(2S,3S)-Epoxygeraniol (CAS 82188-73-6), molecular formula C10H18O2 and molecular weight 170.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (2S,3S)-Epoxygeraniol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 170.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), (2S,3S)-Epoxygeraniol 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.
