(Z)-Hexadec-11-en-1-ol CAS 56683-54-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures (Z)-Hexadec-11-en-1-ol 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.

CATO supplies (Z)-Hexadec-11-en-1-ol (CAS 56683-54-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H32O, MW 240.42 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C16H32O, (Z)-Hexadec-11-en-1-ol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 240.42 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.
