Chemical Structure

N-(2-Ethylhexyl)-3-oxobutanamide CAS 32837-36-8 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.

N-(2-Ethylhexyl)-3-oxobutanamide (CAS 32837-36-8), molecular formula C12H23NO2 and molecular weight 213.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

N-(2-Ethylhexyl)-3-oxobutanamide (C12H23NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.
