Chemical Structure

2-Butyldecanoic acid CAS 52304-09-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 228.37 g/mol gives 2-Butyldecanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-Butyldecanoic acid (CAS 52304-09-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H28O2, MW 228.37 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Butyldecanoic acid (C14H28O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 228.37 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-Butyldecanoic acid 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.
