Chemical Structure

Pentadecan-8-ol CAS 1653-35-6 chemical structure

Description

Pentadecan-8-ol (CAS 1653-35-6), molecular formula C15H32O and molecular weight 228.41 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C15H32O, Pentadecan-8-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 228.41 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Pentadecan-8-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.
