Chemical Structure

(Z)-4-(Hexyloxy)-4-oxobut-2-enoate CAS 15420-81-2 chemical structure

Description

(Z)-4-(Hexyloxy)-4-oxobut-2-enoate (CAS 15420-81-2), molecular formula C10H16O4 and molecular weight 200.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (Z)-4-(Hexyloxy)-4-oxobut-2-enoate (C10H16O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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

CATO manufactures (Z)-4-(Hexyloxy)-4-oxobut-2-enoate 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.
