Chemical Structure

(7Z,11Z,13E)-Hexadeca-7,11,13-trienal CAS 888042-38-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (7Z,11Z,13E)-Hexadeca-7,11,13-trienal is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies (7Z,11Z,13E)-Hexadeca-7,11,13-trienal (CAS 888042-38-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H26O, MW 234.38 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (7Z,11Z,13E)-Hexadeca-7,11,13-trienal is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 234.38 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (7Z,11Z,13E)-Hexadeca-7,11,13-trienal 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.
