Chemical Structure

1-O-Octadecyl-sn-glycerol CAS 6129-13-1 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-O-Octadecyl-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.

1-O-Octadecyl-sn-glycerol (CAS 6129-13-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C21H44O3 and a molecular weight of 344.57 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C21H44O3, 1-O-Octadecyl-sn-glycerol 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 344.57 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.

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.
