Chemical Structure

5,5-Dimethyl-2-(3-oxobutyl)cyclohexane-1,3-dione CAS 19757-98-3 chemical structure

Description

5,5-Dimethyl-2-(3-oxobutyl)cyclohexane-1,3-dione (CAS 19757-98-3), molecular formula C12H18O3 and molecular weight 210.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 5,5-Dimethyl-2-(3-oxobutyl)cyclohexane-1,3-dione (C12H18O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 210.27 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.

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), 5,5-Dimethyl-2-(3-oxobutyl)cyclohexane-1,3-dione 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.
