Chemical Structure

methylheptenone CAS 409-02-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including methylheptenone.

CATO supplies methylheptenone (CAS 409-02-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H14O, MW 126.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, methylheptenone is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 126.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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

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.
