Chemical Structure

N-Hexadecylaniline CAS 4439-42-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of N-Hexadecylaniline is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

N-Hexadecylaniline (CAS 4439-42-3), molecular formula C22H39N and molecular weight 317.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of N-Hexadecylaniline (C22H39N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), N-Hexadecylaniline 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.
