Chemical Structure

2-Methylbutyl 2-methylbutyrate CAS 2445-78-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Methylbutyl 2-methylbutyrate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Methylbutyl 2-methylbutyrate (CAS 2445-78-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H20O2, MW 172.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Methylbutyl 2-methylbutyrate (C10H20O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

CATO manufactures 2-Methylbutyl 2-methylbutyrate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
