Molecular Information

 

---

 

Methyl Maslinate is the methyl ester form of maslinic acid.

Maslinic acid is a naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpenoid, while Methyl Maslinate contains a methyl ester group at the carboxylic acid position.

This structural modification distinguishes Methyl Maslinate from its parent compound and makes it a useful compound for comparative chemical, natural-product and analytical research.

For commercial communication, CQ HERB recommends referring to the material as a triterpenoid derivative rather than describing it using therapeutic or physiological claims.

 

---

 

This comparison is useful for buyers because the two compounds are related but should not be treated as interchangeable materials.

Methyl Maslinate is a compound associated with natural-product research and has been reported in various plant sources in chemical databases. PubChem's LOTUS-linked information records its occurrence in organisms including Isodon japonicus, Cunila lythrifolia and Prunella vulgaris.

For CQ HERB's commercial description, I recommend not claiming that every batch is directly extracted from Hawthorn unless that is exactly how your current material is manufactured.

If your actual manufacturing route is:

Hawthorn → extraction → purification → Methyl Maslinate

then the product page can state:

Botanical Source: Hawthorn

Otherwise, use:

Source: Natural-product derived / synthetic or semi-synthetic route according to batch specification

This distinction is important because buyers may interpret "Hawthorn extract" as a conventional botanical extract rather than an isolated chemical compound.

Methyl Maslinate is supplied as a powdered material.

Public commercial references describe the material as a solid/powder, although the reported color is not completely consistent between suppliers. Therefore, CQ HERB's actual batch specification should take precedence over generic marketplace descriptions.

Recommended CQ HERB description

Appearance: Powder
Color: According to the current batch specification

If your actual product is white powder, you can write:

Appearance: White powder

If it is off-white, write:

Appearance: White to off-white powder

我建议这里不要为了 SEO 去复制其他供应商的颜色描述。

For best stability, Methyl Maslinate should be stored in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry environment and protected from excessive light and moisture.

For long-term storage, lower-temperature conditions may be appropriate depending on the packaging and validated product specification.

Some commercial research suppliers recommend −20°C storage for powdered Methyl Maslinate. However, CQ HERB customers should follow the storage conditions specified on the applicable COA, label and SDS for the supplied batch.

1. Confirm the CAS Number

When sourcing Methyl Maslinate, buyers should confirm:

CAS 22425-82-7

This avoids confusion with maslinic acid and other pentacyclic triterpenoids.

2. Check the Molecular Formula

The correct molecular formula is:

C31H50O4

and the molecular weight is approximately:

486.73 g/mol.

3. Confirm HPLC Purity

For research applications, buyers should ask for:

· HPLC purity

· HPLC chromatogram

· COA

· Batch number

· Analytical method

4. Distinguish Methyl Maslinate from Maslinic Acid

These are related compounds but have different chemical identities.

Methyl Maslinate ≠ Maslinic Acid

The esterification of the carboxylic acid changes the molecular formula and molecular weight.

5. Confirm Intended Use

Methyl Maslinate should be sourced according to the intended application and the regulatory requirements of the destination market.
