Chemical Structure

2-Butyl-3-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one CAS 14211-72-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 152.23 g/mol gives 2-Butyl-3-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Butyl-3-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one (CAS 14211-72-4), molecular formula C10H16O and molecular weight 152.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Butyl-3-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one (C10H16O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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-Butyl-3-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-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.
