Chemical Structure

3-Palmitoyl-sn-glycerol CAS 5309-46-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 330.50 g/mol gives 3-Palmitoyl-sn-glycerol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 3-Palmitoyl-sn-glycerol (CAS 5309-46-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19H38O4, MW 330.50 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 3-Palmitoyl-sn-glycerol (C19H38O4) 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Palmitoyl-sn-glycerol 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.
