1-(2,5,5,7,8,8-Hexamethyl-2,3,5,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethanone CAS 217489-08-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 258.40 g/mol gives 1-(2,5,5,7,8,8-Hexamethyl-2,3,5,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethanone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1-(2,5,5,7,8,8-Hexamethyl-2,3,5,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethanone (CAS 217489-08-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H26O and a molecular weight of 258.40 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-(2,5,5,7,8,8-Hexamethyl-2,3,5,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)ethanone is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 258.40 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
