Chemical Structure

4-ethyl-4-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one CAS 17429-32-2 chemical structure

Description

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

4-ethyl-4-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS 17429-32-2), molecular formula C9H14O and molecular weight 138.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-ethyl-4-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (C9H14O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 138.21 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-ethyl-4-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one 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.
