Chemical Structure

trans-9,10-Epoxystearic Acid CAS 2443-39-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of trans-9,10-Epoxystearic 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.

trans-9,10-Epoxystearic Acid (CAS 2443-39-2), molecular formula C18H34O3 and molecular weight 298.46 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

trans-9,10-Epoxystearic Acid (C18H34O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), trans-9,10-Epoxystearic Acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
