Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Lauric acid (ammonium) is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Lauric acid (ammonium) (CAS 2437-23-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H24O2H3N, MW 217.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Lauric acid (ammonium) is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 217.35 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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 Lauric acid (ammonium) 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.
