Chemical Structure

(5Z,14Z)-5,14-Eicosadienoic Acid CAS 122055-58-7 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (5Z,14Z)-5,14-Eicosadienoic Acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

(5Z,14Z)-5,14-Eicosadienoic Acid (CAS 122055-58-7), molecular formula C20H36O2 and molecular weight 308.50 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (5Z,14Z)-5,14-Eicosadienoic Acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 308.50 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.

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.
