Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO supplies 10-Undecenoic acid, pentyl ester (CAS 18451-96-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H30O2, MW 254.41 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C16H30O2, 10-Undecenoic acid, pentyl ester contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 254.41 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 10-Undecenoic acid, pentyl ester 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.
