Chemical Structure

4-(Hydroxymethyl)cyclohexanone CAS 38580-68-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(Hydroxymethyl)cyclohexanone is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(Hydroxymethyl)cyclohexanone (CAS 38580-68-6), molecular formula C7H12O2 and molecular weight 128.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-(Hydroxymethyl)cyclohexanone (C7H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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), 4-(Hydroxymethyl)cyclohexanone 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.
