Chemical Structure

9,10,16-Trihydroxyhexadecanoic acid CAS 6949-98-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 9,10,16-Trihydroxyhexadecanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

9,10,16-Trihydroxyhexadecanoic acid (CAS 6949-98-0), molecular formula C16H32O5 and molecular weight 304.42 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

9,10,16-Trihydroxyhexadecanoic acid (C16H32O5) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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.

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.
