Chemical Structure

Hexadecyl2-ethylhexanoate CAS 59130-69-7 chemical structure

Description

Hexadecyl2-ethylhexanoate (CAS 59130-69-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C24H48O2 and a molecular weight of 368.64 g/mol.

Structurally, Hexadecyl2-ethylhexanoate (C24H48O2) 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 368.64 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-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 Hexadecyl2-ethylhexanoate 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.
