Chemical Structure

(R)-Methyl 2-hydroxydecanoate CAS 85398-16-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 202.29 g/mol gives (R)-Methyl 2-hydroxydecanoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

(R)-Methyl 2-hydroxydecanoate (CAS 85398-16-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H22O3 and a molecular weight of 202.29 g/mol.

(R)-Methyl 2-hydroxydecanoate (C11H22O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (R)-Methyl 2-hydroxydecanoate 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.
