Chemical Structure

6-(4-n-Propylphenyl)-6-oxohexanoic acid CAS 951892-18-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 6-(4-n-Propylphenyl)-6-oxohexanoic acid.

6-(4-n-Propylphenyl)-6-oxohexanoic acid (CAS 951892-18-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H20O3 and a molecular weight of 248.32 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 6-(4-n-Propylphenyl)-6-oxohexanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 248.32 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

CATO manufactures 6-(4-n-Propylphenyl)-6-oxohexanoic 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.
