Chemical Structure

Benzyl 2-oxocyclohexane-1-carboxylate CAS 2205-32-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Benzyl 2-oxocyclohexane-1-carboxylate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Benzyl 2-oxocyclohexane-1-carboxylate (CAS 2205-32-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H16O3 and a molecular weight of 232.28 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Benzyl 2-oxocyclohexane-1-carboxylate (C14H16O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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.
