Chemical Structure

Methyl 14-Methylpentadecanoate CAS 5129-60-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 14-Methylpentadecanoate 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.

Methyl 14-Methylpentadecanoate (CAS 5129-60-2), molecular formula C17H34O2 and molecular weight 270.45 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Methyl 14-Methylpentadecanoate (C17H34O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 14-Methylpentadecanoate 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.
