Chemical Structure

15-Aminopentadecanoic Acid CAS 17437-21-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 15-Aminopentadecanoic Acid.

CATO supplies 15-Aminopentadecanoic Acid (CAS 17437-21-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H31NO2, MW 257.41 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C15H31NO2, 15-Aminopentadecanoic Acid contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 257.41 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
