Chemical Structure

2-Methyldodecan-2-ol CAS 1653-37-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 200.36 g/mol gives 2-Methyldodecan-2-ol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Methyldodecan-2-ol (CAS 1653-37-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H28O and a molecular weight of 200.36 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Methyldodecan-2-ol is typically white to off-white low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.36 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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-Methyldodecan-2-ol 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.
