Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 176.17 g/mol gives Diacetin distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Diacetin (CAS CATO-CCHM706453) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H12O5 and a molecular weight of 176.17 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C7H12O5, Diacetin contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 176.17 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.
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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
