Methyl (13E)-13-Octadecenoate CAS 42199-38-2 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 Methyl (13E)-13-Octadecenoate.

Methyl (13E)-13-Octadecenoate (CAS 42199-38-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C19H36O2 and a molecular weight of 296.49 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methyl (13E)-13-Octadecenoate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 296.49 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl (13E)-13-Octadecenoate 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.
