Linoleoyl Chloride (CAS 7459-33-8), molecular formula C18H31ClO and molecular weight 298.89 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Linoleoyl Chloride is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.89 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), Linoleoyl Chloride 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.
