Chemical Structure

N-Tetracosane CAS 646-31-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 338.65 g/mol gives N-Tetracosane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

N-Tetracosane (CAS 646-31-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C24H50 and a molecular weight of 338.65 g/mol.

N-Tetracosane (C24H50) contains an organic framework. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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-Tetracosane 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.
