Chemical Structure

1-O-Hexadecyl-rac-glycerol CAS 6145-69-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 316.52 g/mol gives 1-O-Hexadecyl-rac-glycerol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1-O-Hexadecyl-rac-glycerol (CAS 6145-69-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19H40O3, MW 316.52 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-O-Hexadecyl-rac-glycerol (C19H40O3) 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.

CATO manufactures 1-O-Hexadecyl-rac-glycerol 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.
