Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 5-oxohexanoate CAS 111490-79-0 chemical structure

Description

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

tert-Butyl 5-oxohexanoate (CAS 111490-79-0), molecular formula C10H18O3 and molecular weight 186.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H18O3, tert-Butyl 5-oxohexanoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 186.25 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures tert-Butyl 5-oxohexanoate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
