Chemical Structure

3-Ethyl-3-methylheptane CAS 17302-01-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Ethyl-3-methylheptane is closely related to an organic framework in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-Ethyl-3-methylheptane (CAS 17302-01-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H22 and a molecular weight of 142.28 g/mol.

3-Ethyl-3-methylheptane (C10H22) contains an organic framework. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), 3-Ethyl-3-methylheptane 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.
