Description
CATO manufactures (2E,4E)-5-(4-Methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-2,4-pentadienal 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.
(2E,4E)-5-(4-Methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-2,4-pentadienal (CAS 69877-38-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H20O2 and a molecular weight of 244.33 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, (2E,4E)-5-(4-Methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-2,4-pentadienal is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 244.33 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
