2-[(2E)-Hexadec-2-en-1-yl]butanedioic acid CAS 132939-35-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-[(2E)-Hexadec-2-en-1-yl]butanedioic acid 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.

2-[(2E)-Hexadec-2-en-1-yl]butanedioic acid (CAS 132939-35-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H36O4 and a molecular weight of 340.50 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-[(2E)-Hexadec-2-en-1-yl]butanedioic acid (C20H36O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 340.50 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
