Chemical Structure

2,6-Dimethylheptane-3,5-dione CAS 18362-64-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,6-Dimethylheptane-3,5-dione is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2,6-Dimethylheptane-3,5-dione (CAS 18362-64-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H16O2 and a molecular weight of 156.22 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2,6-Dimethylheptane-3,5-dione (C9H16O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.

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.

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.
