Chemical Structure

n-Dotetracontane CAS 7098-20-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

n-Dotetracontane (CAS 7098-20-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C42H86 and a molecular weight of 591.13 g/mol.

Structurally, n-Dotetracontane (C42H86) contains an organic framework. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 591.13 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
