Chemical Structure

(2E,4Z)-Hexa-2,4-dienal CAS 53398-76-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

(2E,4Z)-Hexa-2,4-dienal (CAS 53398-76-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H8O and a molecular weight of 96.13 g/mol.

Structurally, (2E,4Z)-Hexa-2,4-dienal (C6H8O) 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 96.13 g/mol, it falls into the low-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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2E,4Z)-Hexa-2,4-dienal 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.
