Chemical Structure

2-(4-Methylcyclohex-3-en-1-yl)propan-2-yl butyrate CAS 2153-28-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(4-Methylcyclohex-3-en-1-yl)propan-2-yl butyrate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(4-Methylcyclohex-3-en-1-yl)propan-2-yl butyrate (CAS 2153-28-8), molecular formula C14H24O2 and molecular weight 224.34 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(4-Methylcyclohex-3-en-1-yl)propan-2-yl butyrate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 224.34 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.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
