Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 164.29 g/mol gives 2-Ethyladamantane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 2-Ethyladamantane (CAS 14451-87-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H20, MW 164.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2-Ethyladamantane (C12H20) is characterized by an organic framework. 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Ethyladamantane 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.
