Chemical Structure

(Z)-13-Octadecen-1-ol CAS 69820-27-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (Z)-13-Octadecen-1-ol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies (Z)-13-Octadecen-1-ol (CAS 69820-27-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H36O, MW 268.48 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C18H36O, (Z)-13-Octadecen-1-ol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 268.48 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.

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.
