The molecular framework of (2E,6E,10E,14E)-3,7,11,15,19-Pentamethylicosa-2,6,10,14,18-pentaen-1-ol (C25H42O) is characterized by a steroid core, 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
CATO supplies (2E,6E,10E,14E)-3,7,11,15,19-Pentamethylicosa-2,6,10,14,18-pentaen-1-ol (CAS 22488-05-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C25H42O, MW 358.60 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
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.
