Chemical Structure

(E)-Ethyl Tetradec-2-enoate CAS 38112-60-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (E)-Ethyl Tetradec-2-enoate.

CATO supplies (E)-Ethyl Tetradec-2-enoate (CAS 38112-60-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H30O2, MW 254.41 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (E)-Ethyl Tetradec-2-enoate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 254.41 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.

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.
