Ambrettolide (CAS 28645-51-4) is a cyclic ester of formula C16H28O2, 252.39 g/mol, supplied in kilogram lots.

The ring is the point of the molecule: ring-opening gives the hydroxy acid, ring-closing gives the lactone back, and conditions decide which side of that equilibrium is held.

The formula C16H28O2 resolves to 16 carbons with 2 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

Lactones are stored dry; the ring is opened by moisture and base, and the opened form does not close again cleanly.

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.
