Chemical Structure

(2E,4E,6E)-2,4,6-Octatrienal CAS 16326-86-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (2E,4E,6E)-2,4,6-Octatrienal is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 122.16 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

(2E,4E,6E)-2,4,6-Octatrienal (CAS 16326-86-6), molecular formula C8H10O and molecular weight 122.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

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.
