Chemical Structure

Tetradecamethylhexasiloxane CAS 107-52-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Tetradecamethylhexasiloxane.

Tetradecamethylhexasiloxane (CAS 107-52-8), molecular formula C14H42O5Si6 and molecular weight 458.99 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C14H42O5Si6, Tetradecamethylhexasiloxane 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 458.99 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.

CATO manufactures Tetradecamethylhexasiloxane 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.
