Chemical Structure

(-)-beta-Cubebene CAS 13744-15-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (-)-beta-Cubebene is closely related to an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(-)-beta-Cubebene (CAS 13744-15-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H24 and a molecular weight of 204.35 g/mol.

Structurally, (-)-beta-Cubebene (C15H24) contains an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 204.35 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (-)-beta-Cubebene 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.
