About Zingiberene

Listed under CAS 495-60-3, Zingiberene is an API reference standard available from Vaqora Chemicals. Its molecular formula is C15H24 and its molecular weight is 204.35 g/mol. The IUPAC name is (5R)-2-methyl-5-[(2S)-6-methylhept-5-en-2-yl]cyclohexa-1,3-diene. It is also known as alpha-Zingiberene or a-zingiberene.

It is supplied as a solid. Store the standard in its sealed vial, protected from light and moisture, and follow the storage condition printed on the COA. Under GHS it is labelled “Danger”, so handle it with suitable PPE and consult the SDS.

As a reference sample of the parent drug substance, it is used for identification, assay and impurity-profiling work during analytical method development, validation (AMV) and routine QC. Typical end-use sectors are pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

Vaqora Chemicals supplies Zingiberene in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs, each shipped with a Certificate of Analysis (COA), and exports worldwide.
