Chemical Structure

2-Octadecylicosan-1-ol CAS 14536-62-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 551.03 g/mol gives 2-Octadecylicosan-1-ol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-Octadecylicosan-1-ol (CAS 14536-62-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C38H78O, MW 551.03 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C38H78O, 2-Octadecylicosan-1-ol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 551.03 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Octadecylicosan-1-ol 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.
