CATO supplies 1,1,1,3,3-Pentamethyl-3-octyldisiloxane (CAS 180006-15-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H32OSi2, MW 260.56 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 1,1,1,3,3-Pentamethyl-3-octyldisiloxane (C13H32OSi2) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of -2.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 260.56 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
