Chemical Structure

4-Methyl-4-(5-methylfuran-2-yl)pentan-2-one CAS 31704-82-2 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 4-Methyl-4-(5-methylfuran-2-yl)pentan-2-one (CAS 31704-82-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H16O2, MW 180.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-Methyl-4-(5-methylfuran-2-yl)pentan-2-one (C11H16O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
