Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 14-Hydroxytetradecanoic acid 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.
CATO supplies 14-Hydroxytetradecanoic acid (CAS 17278-74-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H28O3, MW 244.37 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 14-Hydroxytetradecanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 244.37 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.
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), 14-Hydroxytetradecanoic acid 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.
