Chemical Structure

2-Hydroxypentadecanoic acid CAS 2507-54-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 258.40 g/mol gives 2-Hydroxypentadecanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Hydroxypentadecanoic acid (CAS 2507-54-2), molecular formula C15H30O3 and molecular weight 258.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Hydroxypentadecanoic acid (C15H30O3) 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Hydroxypentadecanoic acid 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.
