The occurrence of (2E,6Z)-3,7,11-Trimethyldodeca-2,6,10-trien-1-ol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
(2E,6Z)-3,7,11-Trimethyldodeca-2,6,10-trien-1-ol (CAS 3879-60-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H26O and a molecular weight of 222.37 g/mol.
Structurally, (2E,6Z)-3,7,11-Trimethyldodeca-2,6,10-trien-1-ol (C15H26O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 222.37 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
