Chemical Structure
Description
Ethyl (2E,4E)-5-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)penta-2,4-dienoate (CAS 56019-71-7), molecular formula C14H14O4 and molecular weight 246.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, Ethyl (2E,4E)-5-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)penta-2,4-dienoate (C14H14O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 246.26 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl (2E,4E)-5-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)penta-2,4-dienoate 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.
