Chemical Structure

10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid CAS 23048-75-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic 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.

10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid (CAS 23048-75-1), molecular formula C16H32O3 and molecular weight 272.42 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid (C16H32O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

CATO manufactures 10-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid 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.
