4-Oxocyclohexanecarboxylic Acid CAS 874-61-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

4-Oxocyclohexanecarboxylic Acid (CAS 874-61-3), molecular formula C7H10O3 and molecular weight 142.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-Oxocyclohexanecarboxylic Acid (C7H10O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Oxocyclohexanecarboxylic Acid 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.
