Chemical Structure

16-Methyloctadecanoicacid CAS 17001-28-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 16-Methyloctadecanoicacid 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.

16-Methyloctadecanoicacid (CAS 17001-28-4), molecular formula C19H38O2 and molecular weight 298.50 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

16-Methyloctadecanoicacid (C19H38O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
