As a certified reference material (CRM), (6Z)-Heneicosen-11-one 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.
(6Z)-Heneicosen-11-one (CAS 54844-65-4), molecular formula C21H40O and molecular weight 308.54 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C21H40O, (6Z)-Heneicosen-11-one contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 308.54 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
