Chemical Structure

5-Methylpentadecane CAS 25117-33-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 226.44 g/mol gives 5-Methylpentadecane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 5-Methylpentadecane (CAS 25117-33-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H34, MW 226.44 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

5-Methylpentadecane (C16H34) contains an organic framework. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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), 5-Methylpentadecane 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.
