Chemical Structure

3-cyclohexyl-2-methylpropanal CAS 20514-52-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-cyclohexyl-2-methylpropanal is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 3-cyclohexyl-2-methylpropanal (CAS 20514-52-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H18O, MW 154.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-cyclohexyl-2-methylpropanal is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.25 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-cyclohexyl-2-methylpropanal 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.
