Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-methylvalerate CAS 2177-77-7 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 2-methylvalerate (CAS 2177-77-7), molecular formula C7H14O2 and molecular weight 130.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C7H14O2, Methyl 2-methylvalerate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 130.18 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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

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.
