Chemical Structure

Ethyl (E)-4-methylpenta-2,4-dienoate CAS 13369-24-9 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

Ethyl (E)-4-methylpenta-2,4-dienoate (CAS 13369-24-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12O2 and a molecular weight of 140.18 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl (E)-4-methylpenta-2,4-dienoate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 140.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO manufactures Ethyl (E)-4-methylpenta-2,4-dienoate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
