9-Eicosene CAS 42448-90-8 chemical structure

Description

9-Eicosene (CAS 42448-90-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H40 and a molecular weight of 280.53 g/mol.

Owing to an organic framework, 9-Eicosene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 280.53 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.

CATO manufactures 9-Eicosene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
