Chemical Structure

cis-11,14-Eicosadienoic Acid Methyl Ester CAS 61012-46-2 chemical structure

Description

cis-11,14-Eicosadienoic Acid Methyl Ester (CAS 61012-46-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C21H38O2 and a molecular weight of 322.53 g/mol.

cis-11,14-Eicosadienoic Acid Methyl Ester (C21H38O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), cis-11,14-Eicosadienoic Acid Methyl Ester 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.
