alpha-Damascone CAS 24720-09-0 chemical structure

Description

alpha-Damascone (CAS 24720-09-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H20O and a molecular weight of 192.30 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, alpha-Damascone is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 192.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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 alpha-Damascone 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.
