Chemical Structure

7-Oxo-7-(4-propylphenyl)heptanoic acid CAS 951892-22-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 7-Oxo-7-(4-propylphenyl)heptanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

7-Oxo-7-(4-propylphenyl)heptanoic acid (CAS 951892-22-1), molecular formula C16H22O3 and molecular weight 262.34 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 7-Oxo-7-(4-propylphenyl)heptanoic acid (C16H22O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures 7-Oxo-7-(4-propylphenyl)heptanoic 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.
