Description
(+)-alpha-Pinene is a monoterpene reference substance in ROTICHROM® GC quality for gas chromatography. Identified by CAS number 7785-70-8 and empirical formula C₁₀H₁₆, it has a molar mass of 136,24 g/mol and a density of 0,857 g/cm³. The material shows a boiling point of 156 °C and a flash point of 32 °C, supporting method design and safe laboratory handling. Supplied as a 100 mg portion in glass, it is intended for analytical workflows that need defined GC reference substances for calibration, peak assignment and comparative identification. Typical use cases include terpene profiling, natural-product analysis and fragrance-related chromatography where enantiomeric pinene standards are required. Physical constants from the manufacturer data help plan sample introduction and temperature programmes. This reference material comes from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the ROTICHROM® GC line and fits laboratories working under chromatography and GC reference-substance protocols. The compact glass pack suits method development, routine QC checks and research applications that demand a clearly specified (+)-alpha-pinene standard.

Questions about (+)-alpha-Pinene, ROTICHROM® GC, 100 mg, glass
What is this article?
(+)-alpha-Pinene, ROTICHROM® GC, 100 mg, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Essential oils & fragrances, inside Natural products & essential oils, in Lab chemicals.
An essential oil is the volatile fraction distilled or pressed from a named plant part. The species, the chemotype and a stated component, when the seller gives one, are the specification. A fragrance compound is a formulated mixture. The two should not be treated as the same bottle.
A natural product is a molecule extracted from a plant, an animal or a microorganism, or a mixture of those molecules. An essential oil is the volatile fraction. The useful specification is the source species, the plant part and, where it exists, the stated content of a marker compound. Two oils with the same common name are not the same article. Marker compounds are identified on PubChem and named by IUPAC.
