5-Methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid (CAS 39668-86-5), molecular formula C11H20O2 and molecular weight 184.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 5-Methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid (C11H20O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 184.28 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
