Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-Hydroxytetradecanoate CAS 56009-40-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 2-Hydroxytetradecanoate.

CATO supplies Methyl 2-Hydroxytetradecanoate (CAS 56009-40-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H30O3, MW 258.40 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C15H30O3, Methyl 2-Hydroxytetradecanoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 258.40 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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 Methyl 2-Hydroxytetradecanoate 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.
