Chemical Structure

(7Z,11Z)-Hexadeca-7,11-dienal CAS 96883-53-3 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies (7Z,11Z)-Hexadeca-7,11-dienal (CAS 96883-53-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H28O, MW 236.39 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (7Z,11Z)-Hexadeca-7,11-dienal is typically white to off-white low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.39 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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)-Hexadeca-7,11-dienal 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.
