Chemical Structure

4-Methylpent-4-enal CAS 3973-43-1 chemical structure

Description

4-Methylpent-4-enal (CAS 3973-43-1), molecular formula C6H10O and molecular weight 98.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Methylpent-4-enal is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 98.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 4-Methylpent-4-enal under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
