Chemical Structure

Methyl Myristate CAS 124-10-7 chemical structure

Description

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

Methyl Myristate (CAS 124-10-7), molecular formula C15H30O2 and molecular weight 242.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methyl Myristate (C15H30O2) contains 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 Methyl Myristate 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.
