Chemical Structure

Lithium Stearate CAS 4485-12-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 290.42 g/mol gives Lithium Stearate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Lithium Stearate (CAS 4485-12-5), molecular formula C18H35O2Li and molecular weight 290.42 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Lithium Stearate (C18H35O2Li) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.5, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 290.42 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

CATO manufactures Lithium Stearate 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.
