The occurrence of Hexane-1,6-diyl distearate 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.
Hexane-1,6-diyl distearate (CAS 26730-92-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C42H82O4 and a molecular weight of 651.10 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Hexane-1,6-diyl distearate is typically white to off-white amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 651.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
