Chemical Structure
Description
Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, N-Dodecanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 283.41 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.
CATO supplies N-Dodecanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone (CAS 18627-38-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H29NO3, MW 283.41 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
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 N-Dodecanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone 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.
