Chemical Structure

2-Octanone CAS 111-13-7 chemical structure

Description

2-Octanone (CAS 111-13-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H16O and a molecular weight of 128.21 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-Octanone (C8H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 128.21 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range.

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), 2-Octanone 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.
