Chemical Structure

2,4-Octanedione CAS 14090-87-0 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2,4-Octanedione (C8H14O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 142.20 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range.

2,4-Octanedione (CAS 14090-87-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H14O2 and a molecular weight of 142.20 g/mol.

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.

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.
