Chemical Structure

4-(Chloromethyl)-2-methyloctane CAS 1496890-66-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

4-(Chloromethyl)-2-methyloctane (CAS 1496890-66-4), molecular formula C10H21Cl and molecular weight 176.73 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-(Chloromethyl)-2-methyloctane (C10H21Cl) contains chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 176.73 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
