Chemical Structure

(9E,11E,13Z)-9,11,13-Octadecatrienoic Acid CAS 4337-71-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures (9E,11E,13Z)-9,11,13-Octadecatrienoic Acid 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.

(9E,11E,13Z)-9,11,13-Octadecatrienoic Acid (CAS 4337-71-7), molecular formula C18H30O2 and molecular weight 278.43 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (9E,11E,13Z)-9,11,13-Octadecatrienoic Acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 278.43 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
