Chemical Structure

Sodium octadec-9-enoate CAS 16558-02-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Sodium octadec-9-enoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Sodium octadec-9-enoate (CAS 16558-02-4), molecular formula C18H33O2Na and molecular weight 304.45 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Sodium octadec-9-enoate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 304.45 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.

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), Sodium octadec-9-enoate 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.
