Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-5-propylcyclohex-2-enone CAS 3720-16-9 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 3-Methyl-5-propylcyclohex-2-enone (CAS 3720-16-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H16O, MW 152.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C10H16O, 3-Methyl-5-propylcyclohex-2-enone contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 152.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
