Chemical Structure

(10Z,12E)-Linoleic Acid Methyl Ester CAS 13058-53-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (10Z,12E)-Linoleic Acid Methyl Ester is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(10Z,12E)-Linoleic Acid Methyl Ester (CAS 13058-53-2), molecular formula C19H34O2 and molecular weight 294.47 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (10Z,12E)-Linoleic Acid Methyl Ester is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 294.47 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (10Z,12E)-Linoleic Acid Methyl Ester 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.
