3,4-Dimethylhexane-2,5-dione CAS 25234-79-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 3,4-Dimethylhexane-2,5-dione (CAS 25234-79-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H14O2, MW 142.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

3,4-Dimethylhexane-2,5-dione (C8H14O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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.
