Chemical Structure

2,4-Decadienoic acid ethyl ester CAS 37549-74-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

2,4-Decadienoic acid ethyl ester (CAS 37549-74-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H6Br4N2 and a molecular weight of 473.78 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 2,4-Decadienoic acid ethyl ester is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 473.78 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), 2,4-Decadienoic acid ethyl 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.
