Chemical Structure

Dodecyl Methacrylate CAS 142-90-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 254.41 g/mol gives Dodecyl Methacrylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Dodecyl Methacrylate (CAS 142-90-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H30O2 and a molecular weight of 254.41 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Dodecyl Methacrylate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 254.41 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.

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 Dodecyl Methacrylate 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.
