Chemical Structure

Octyl Palmitate CAS 16958-85-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Octyl Palmitate 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.

CATO supplies Octyl Palmitate (CAS 16958-85-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C24H48O2, MW 368.64 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Octyl Palmitate (C24H48O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
