Chemical Structure

(R,R)-Isophytol CAS 395645-30-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (R,R)-Isophytol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(R,R)-Isophytol (CAS 395645-30-4), molecular formula C20H40O and molecular weight 296.53 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(R,R)-Isophytol (C20H40O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

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), (R,R)-Isophytol 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.
