Structure of 16-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid, CAS 506-13-8 — Structure · C16H32O3

CAS number: 506-13-8
Molecular formula: C₁₆H₃₂O₃
Molecular weight: 272.42 g/mol
Standard packing: 1kg / 25kg / 100kg

CAS 506-13-8, 16-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid, is a C16H32O3 acid supplied in kilogram lots with a batch COA.

The carboxylic acid is activated in situ for amidation or esterification, or used directly for salt formation; the free acid is also the form that stores best.

The formula C16H32O3 resolves to 16 carbons with 3 oxygens. Long-chain entries of 16 carbons behave as oils or waxy solids and are warmed before packing so that the unit weight is accurate.

Handling and storage

Acids are stored away from amines and bases, and the container is kept closed because the material is hygroscopic.

Ordering

The unit weights held are 1kg / 25kg / 100kg. A split shipment across two of those sizes is treated as one lot and one certificate. The certificate states identity, assay and the analytical method used; a tighter limit than the catalogue entry can be written into the lot specification.
