Chemical Structure

2,3-Dihydroxypropyl tridecanoate CAS 71958-74-2 chemical structure

Description

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

2,3-Dihydroxypropyl tridecanoate (CAS 71958-74-2), molecular formula C16H32O4 and molecular weight 288.42 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,3-Dihydroxypropyl tridecanoate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 288.42 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,3-Dihydroxypropyl tridecanoate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
