Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-2-pentenal CAS 3592-19-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Methyl-2-pentenal is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 3-Methyl-2-pentenal (CAS 3592-19-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H15Cl2NO3, MW 292.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C12H15Cl2NO3, 3-Methyl-2-pentenal contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 292.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Methyl-2-pentenal meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
