Description

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.

CATO supplies 2398-34-7 3-Hydroxypalmitic acid Hexadecanoic acid, 3-hydroxy- beta-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid beta-Hydroxypalmitate beta-Hydroxypalmitic acid (CAS 2398-34-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H32O3, MW 272.42 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2398-34-7 3-Hydroxypalmitic acid Hexadecanoic acid, 3-hydroxy- beta-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid beta-Hydroxypalmitate beta-Hydroxypalmitic acid (C16H32O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 272.42 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
