Kinoprene (mixture of E and Z isomers) (C18H28O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Kinoprene (mixture of E and Z isomers) (CAS 37882-31-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H28O2 and a molecular weight of 276.41 g/mol.
