Chemical Structure

4-(Diethylamino)butan-2-one CAS 3299-38-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(Diethylamino)butan-2-one is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-(Diethylamino)butan-2-one (CAS 3299-38-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H17NO, MW 143.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-(Diethylamino)butan-2-one (C8H17NO) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
