3-O-Acetyl-α-boswellic acid CAS 89913-60-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 498.74 g/mol gives 3-O-Acetyl-α-boswellic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 3-O-Acetyl-α-boswellic acid (CAS 89913-60-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C32H50O4, MW 498.74 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

3-O-Acetyl-α-boswellic acid (C32H50O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-O-Acetyl-α-boswellic 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.
