Chemical Structure

Eicosenoic acid, methyl ester, (Z)- CAS 76899-35-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Eicosenoic acid, methyl ester, (Z)- is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Eicosenoic acid, methyl ester, (Z)- (CAS 76899-35-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C21H40O2 and a molecular weight of 324.54 g/mol.

Eicosenoic acid, methyl ester, (Z)- (C21H40O2) 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), Eicosenoic acid, methyl ester, (Z)- 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.
