Chemical Structure

alpha-Tocotrienol CAS 58864-81-6 chemical structure

Description

alpha-Tocotrienol (C29H44O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies alpha-Tocotrienol (CAS 58864-81-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C29H44O2, MW 424.66 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
