Chemical Structure

3-hydroxy-6-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one CAS 136113-96-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 3-hydroxy-6-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (C7H10O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

3-hydroxy-6-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS 136113-96-7), molecular formula C7H10O2 and molecular weight 126.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
