Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-4-heptanol CAS 21570-35-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Methyl-4-heptanol 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 2-Methyl-4-heptanol (CAS 21570-35-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H18O, MW 130.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Methyl-4-heptanol (C8H18O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.

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), 2-Methyl-4-heptanol 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.
