Chemical Structure

2-Tetradecanol CAS 4706-81-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Tetradecanol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Tetradecanol (CAS 4706-81-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H30O and a molecular weight of 214.39 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-Tetradecanol (C14H30O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 214.39 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.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-Tetradecanol 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.
