Chemical Structure

2-((Dodecyloxy)methyl)oxirane CAS 2461-18-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 242.40 g/mol gives 2-((Dodecyloxy)methyl)oxirane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-((Dodecyloxy)methyl)oxirane (CAS 2461-18-9), molecular formula C15H30O2 and molecular weight 242.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-((Dodecyloxy)methyl)oxirane (C15H30O2) 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-((Dodecyloxy)methyl)oxirane 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.
