Chemical Structure

2-Hexyldodecyl palmitate CAS 134112-34-8 chemical structure

Description

2-Hexyldodecyl palmitate (CAS 134112-34-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C34H68O2 and a molecular weight of 508.90 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Hexyldodecyl palmitate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 508.90 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Hexyldodecyl palmitate 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.
