Chemical Structure

Cupric Citrate CAS 866-82-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Cupric Citrate is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Cupric Citrate (CAS 866-82-0), molecular formula C6H4O7Cu and molecular weight 251.64 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Cupric Citrate (C6H4O7Cu) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), Cupric Citrate 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.
