Chemical Structure

3,3-Dimethyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)butan-2-one CAS 34552-04-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

3,3-Dimethyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)butan-2-one (CAS 34552-04-0), molecular formula C11H15NO and molecular weight 177.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3,3-Dimethyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)butan-2-one (C11H15NO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
