Chemical Structure

2,3,3-Trimethyl-2-pentanol CAS 23171-85-9 chemical structure

Description

2,3,3-Trimethyl-2-pentanol (CAS 23171-85-9), molecular formula C8H18O and molecular weight 130.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,3,3-Trimethyl-2-pentanol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 130.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,3,3-Trimethyl-2-pentanol 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.
