Chemical Structure

2-Tetradecylhexadecanoic Acid Ethyl Ester CAS 86302-97-8 chemical structure

Description

2-Tetradecylhexadecanoic Acid Ethyl Ester (CAS 86302-97-8), molecular formula C32H64O2 and molecular weight 480.85 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Tetradecylhexadecanoic Acid Ethyl Ester (C32H64O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 480.85 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 2-Tetradecylhexadecanoic Acid Ethyl Ester under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
