Chemical Structure

Valproic Acid Impurity 16 CAS 90830-41-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Valproic Acid Impurity 16 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.

Valproic Acid Impurity 16 (CAS 90830-41-4), molecular formula C8H12O2 and molecular weight 140.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Valproic Acid Impurity 16 (C8H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).

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), Valproic Acid Impurity 16 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.
