Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-cyclohexylideneacetate CAS 40203-74-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methyl 2-cyclohexylideneacetate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Methyl 2-cyclohexylideneacetate (CAS 40203-74-5), molecular formula C9H14O2 and molecular weight 154.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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