rac-3-Hydroxypentadecanoic Acid CAS 32602-70-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures rac-3-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.

rac-3-Hydroxypentadecanoic Acid (CAS 32602-70-3), molecular formula C15H30O3 and molecular weight 258.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

rac-3-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.

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.
