Chemical Structure

Lauric acid-diethanol amide CAS 120-40-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Lauric acid-diethanol amide is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Lauric acid-diethanol amide (CAS 120-40-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H33NO3 and a molecular weight of 287.44 g/mol.

Lauric acid-diethanol amide (C16H33NO3) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures Lauric acid-diethanol amide 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.
