Based on its molecular formula C5H8O, Ethyl Vinyl Ketone contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 84.12 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.
CATO supplies Ethyl Vinyl Ketone (CAS 1629-58-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H8O, MW 84.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
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.
