Chemical Structure

Tetrabutylammonium hydroxide hydrate CAS 74296-38-1 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 Tetrabutylammonium hydroxide hydrate (CAS 74296-38-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H36NH2OHO, MW 277.49 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Tetrabutylammonium hydroxide hydrate (C16H36NH2OHO) is characterized by an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
