Chemical Structure

2,6-Bis-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenylmethylene)-Cyclohexanone CAS 18977-33-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2,6-Bis-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenylmethylene)-Cyclohexanone (CAS 18977-33-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C24H26O5, MW 394.46 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2,6-Bis-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenylmethylene)-Cyclohexanone (C24H26O5) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 394.46 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,6-Bis-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenylmethylene)-Cyclohexanone 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.
