Chemical Structure

4-Methylumbelliferyl Palmitate CAS 17695-48-6 chemical structure

Description

4-Methylumbelliferyl Palmitate (C26H38O4) contains a steroid core, 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

4-Methylumbelliferyl Palmitate (CAS 17695-48-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C26H38O4 and a molecular weight of 414.58 g/mol.

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.

CATO manufactures 4-Methylumbelliferyl Palmitate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
