Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 240.38 g/mol gives 6-Decyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 6-Decyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one (CAS 7370-38-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H28O2, MW 240.38 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C15H28O2, 6-Decyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 240.38 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
