Chemical Structure

3,8-Dimethyldecane CAS 17312-55-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

3,8-Dimethyldecane (CAS 17312-55-9), molecular formula C12H26 and molecular weight 170.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an organic framework, 3,8-Dimethyldecane is typically white to off-white low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 170.33 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.

CATO manufactures 3,8-Dimethyldecane under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
