Description
Orcin monohydrate is a crystalline phenolic hydrate of minimum 99 % purity, registered under CAS number 6153-39-5 with empirical formula C₇H₈O₂·H₂O. It has a molar mass of 142,15 g/mol. The monohydrate form provides a defined hydration state that can be advantageous when weighing and dissolving the solid for stock solutions or standardised detection mixtures. Orcin-type compounds are established intermediates in organic chemistry and appear in orcinol-based assays used for carbohydrate and related analyte detection. This grade from manufacturer Carl ROTH offers a compact, glass-contained quantity suited to research, teaching, and quality-control settings that do not require bulk volumes. Clear CAS, EG, and formula data support documentation and method transfer, while the small pack size reduces waste and simplifies storage next to other phenolic reagents used in synthetic and analytical workflows.
This article belongs on Inorganic salts, in Inorganic chemicals.

Questions about Orcin monohydrate, min. 99 %, 5 g, glass
What is this article?
Orcin monohydrate, min. 99 %, 5 g, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Inorganic salts, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
An inorganic salt is an ionic solid, a chloride, a sulfate, a nitrate, a phosphate. The degree of hydration changes the mass that contains one mole of the ion. Analytical grade limits the foreign ions. A hydrate and the anhydrous salt are not interchangeable by weight.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
