Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 340.58 g/mol gives 2-Octyl-tetradecanoic Acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 2-Octyl-tetradecanoic Acid (CAS 879876-30-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H44O2, MW 340.58 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C22H44O2, 2-Octyl-tetradecanoic Acid 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 340.58 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.
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-Octyl-tetradecanoic Acid 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.
