Chemical Structure

(S,6Z,8Z,11Z)-5-Hydroxyicosa-6,8,11-trienoic acid CAS 195061-94-0 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (S,6Z,8Z,11Z)-5-Hydroxyicosa-6,8,11-trienoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 322.48 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).

(S,6Z,8Z,11Z)-5-Hydroxyicosa-6,8,11-trienoic acid (CAS 195061-94-0), molecular formula C20H34O3 and molecular weight 322.48 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.
