Chemical Structure

6-Methyl-1H-indene CAS 20232-11-5 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

6-Methyl-1H-indene (CAS 20232-11-5), molecular formula C10H10 and molecular weight 130.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an aromatic ring system, 6-Methyl-1H-indene is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 130.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures 6-Methyl-1H-indene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
