Chemical Structure

Methyl (Z)-octadec-2-enoate CAS 13058-55-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl (Z)-octadec-2-enoate 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.

Methyl (Z)-octadec-2-enoate (CAS 13058-55-4), molecular formula C19H36O2 and molecular weight 296.49 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methyl (Z)-octadec-2-enoate (C19H36O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
