Chemical Structure

Hexadecanoic-15,15,16,16,16-d5 Acid CAS 285979-77-3 chemical structure

Description

Hexadecanoic-15,15,16,16,16-d5 Acid (C16H27D5O2) contains deuterium isotope labeling, 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Hexadecanoic-15,15,16,16,16-d5 Acid (CAS 285979-77-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H27D5O2 and a molecular weight of 261.45 g/mol.

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), Hexadecanoic-15,15,16,16,16-d5 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.
