Chemical Structure

Tert-butyl 5-methyl-3-oxohexanoate CAS 39140-54-0 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C11H20O3, Tert-butyl 5-methyl-3-oxohexanoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 200.27 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.

Tert-butyl 5-methyl-3-oxohexanoate (CAS 39140-54-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H20O3 and a molecular weight of 200.27 g/mol.

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