Chemical Structure

Tetrabutylammonium chloride dihydrate CAS 88641-54-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 295.94 g/mol gives Tetrabutylammonium chloride dihydrate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Tetrabutylammonium chloride dihydrate (CAS 88641-54-7), molecular formula C16H36NClH2O and molecular weight 295.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Tetrabutylammonium chloride dihydrate (C16H36NClH2O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.

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.

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.
