Chemical Structure

(2Z,4E)-Hexa-2,4-dienal CAS 54716-12-0 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 (2Z,4E)-Hexa-2,4-dienal.

CATO supplies (2Z,4E)-Hexa-2,4-dienal (CAS 54716-12-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H8O, MW 96.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (2Z,4E)-Hexa-2,4-dienal is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 96.13 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).

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

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.
