Chemical Structure

4-Methyl-2-Pentanol CAS 108-11-2 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

4-Methyl-2-Pentanol (CAS 108-11-2), molecular formula C6H14O and molecular weight 102.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Methyl-2-Pentanol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 102.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
