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.
CATO supplies (R,E)-1-(2,6,6-Trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)pent-1-en-3-one (CAS 127-42-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H22O, MW 206.32 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (R,E)-1-(2,6,6-Trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)pent-1-en-3-one is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 206.32 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (R,E)-1-(2,6,6-Trimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl)pent-1-en-3-one 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.
