1-O-Hexadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycerol CAS 96960-92-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 1-O-Hexadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycerol 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.

1-O-Hexadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycerol (CAS 96960-92-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H42O3 and a molecular weight of 330.55 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-O-Hexadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycerol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 330.55 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
