Chemical Structure

1,1,7-Heptanetricarboxylic Acid CAS 855957-40-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,1,7-Heptanetricarboxylic Acid 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.

1,1,7-Heptanetricarboxylic Acid (CAS 855957-40-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H16O6 and a molecular weight of 232.23 g/mol.

Structurally, 1,1,7-Heptanetricarboxylic Acid (C10H16O6) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 232.23 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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 1,1,7-Heptanetricarboxylic Acid 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.
