Chemical Structure

(S)-2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxooctadecanoic acid CAS 358632-58-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (S)-2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxooctadecanoic acid 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.

(S)-2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxooctadecanoic acid (CAS 358632-58-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C19H36O4 and a molecular weight of 328.49 g/mol.

(S)-2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxooctadecanoic acid (C19H36O4) 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (S)-2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxooctadecanoic 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.
