The occurrence of 2-Methylenepent-4-enal 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 2-Methylenepent-4-enal (CAS CATO-C3D-263008), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H8O, MW 96.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2-Methylenepent-4-enal (C6H8O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
