Chemical Structure

1,2-O-Dihexadecyl-rac-glycerol CAS 13071-60-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,2-O-Dihexadecyl-rac-glycerol 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.

1,2-O-Dihexadecyl-rac-glycerol (CAS 13071-60-8), molecular formula C35H72O3 and molecular weight 540.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1,2-O-Dihexadecyl-rac-glycerol (C35H72O3) 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,2-O-Dihexadecyl-rac-glycerol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
