Description

The occurrence of (3R)-3-(hexadecanoyloxy)-4-(trimethylazaniumyl)butanoate (3R)-3-hexadecanoyloxy-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate (3R)-3-palmitoyloxy-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate 2364-67-2 CHEBI:17490 Hexadecanoyl-L-carnitine Hexadecenoyl carnitine L-Carnitine palmitoyl ester L-Palmitoylcarnitine O-hexadecanoyl-(R)-carnitine O-hexadecanoyl-R-carnitine O-palmitoyl-L-carnitine Palmitoyl-L-carnitine Palmitoylcarnitine hexadecanoylcarnitine is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(3R)-3-(hexadecanoyloxy)-4-(trimethylazaniumyl)butanoate (3R)-3-hexadecanoyloxy-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate (3R)-3-palmitoyloxy-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate 2364-67-2 CHEBI:17490 Hexadecanoyl-L-carnitine Hexadecenoyl carnitine L-Carnitine palmitoyl ester L-Palmitoylcarnitine O-hexadecanoyl-(R)-carnitine O-hexadecanoyl-R-carnitine O-palmitoyl-L-carnitine Palmitoyl-L-carnitine Palmitoylcarnitine hexadecanoylcarnitine (CAS 2364-67-2), molecular formula C23H45NO4 and molecular weight 399.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (3R)-3-(hexadecanoyloxy)-4-(trimethylazaniumyl)butanoate (3R)-3-hexadecanoyloxy-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate (3R)-3-palmitoyloxy-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate 2364-67-2 CHEBI:17490 Hexadecanoyl-L-carnitine Hexadecenoyl carnitine L-Carnitine palmitoyl ester L-Palmitoylcarnitine O-hexadecanoyl-(R)-carnitine O-hexadecanoyl-R-carnitine O-palmitoyl-L-carnitine Palmitoyl-L-carnitine Palmitoylcarnitine hexadecanoylcarnitine (C23H45NO4) is characterized by an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
