Chemical Structure

Policosanol CAS 142583-61-7 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

Policosanol (CAS 142583-61-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C3H6OC2H4O and a molecular weight of 102.13 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C3H6OC2H4O, Policosanol 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 102.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
