(E)-11-Tetradecenal

CAS 35746-21-5, (E)-11-Tetradecenal, carries an aldehyde handle on a C14H26O skeleton and weighs 210.36 g/mol.

Aldehydes are the least stable group in most sequences: they are carried one step and consumed, which is why the lot is normally ordered close to the date it is needed. The name fixes the geometry at C11, so the entry is a defined isomer rather than a mixture and the lot is qualified on that isomer.

The formula C14H26O resolves to 14 carbons with one oxygen. With 14 carbons the lipophilicity dominates: solubility in polar media falls away and the work-up is usually a phase separation.

Handling and storage

Store cold, closed and away from oxidants; the acid that forms on air exposure is the impurity to watch on an older lot.

Ordering

Standard packing 1kg / 25kg / 50kg. Other unit weights are quoted per lot and confirmed in writing before the material is packed. Nothing on this page should be read as a guaranteed minimum. The number that applies is the one on the certificate for the lot you receive.
