Chemical Structure

N-Triacontane CAS 638-68-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of N-Triacontane is closely related to an organic framework in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

N-Triacontane (CAS 638-68-6), molecular formula C30H62 and molecular weight 422.81 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C30H62, N-Triacontane contains an organic framework; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 422.81 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.

CATO manufactures N-Triacontane 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.
