Chemical Structure

2-Hydroxypropyl Ricinoleate CAS 142-56-3 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 2-Hydroxypropyl Ricinoleate.

CATO supplies 2-Hydroxypropyl Ricinoleate (CAS 142-56-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C21H40O4, MW 356.54 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C21H40O4, 2-Hydroxypropyl Ricinoleate 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 356.54 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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-Hydroxypropyl Ricinoleate 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.
