Chemical Structure

Hexadecyltrimethylammonium (tetrafluoroborate) CAS 73257-08-6 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.

CATO supplies Hexadecyltrimethylammonium (tetrafluoroborate) (CAS 73257-08-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19H42NBF4, MW 371.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Hexadecyltrimethylammonium (tetrafluoroborate) (C19H42NBF4) contains fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Hexadecyltrimethylammonium (tetrafluoroborate) 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.
