Chemical Structure

16-((Anthracene-9-carbonyl)oxy)hexadecanoic acid CAS 64821-29-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 16-((Anthracene-9-carbonyl)oxy)hexadecanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 16-((Anthracene-9-carbonyl)oxy)hexadecanoic acid (CAS 64821-29-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C31H40O4, MW 476.65 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C31H40O4, 16-((Anthracene-9-carbonyl)oxy)hexadecanoic acid contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 476.65 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
