CATO supplies (2-Methylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diyl)bis(trimethylsilane) (CAS 18406-93-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H26Si2, MW 238.52 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of (2-Methylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diyl)bis(trimethylsilane) (C13H26Si2) is characterized by an organic framework. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (2-Methylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diyl)bis(trimethylsilane) 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.
