Chemical Structure

(2E,6E)-2,6-Dibenzylidenecyclohexanone CAS 42052-61-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (2E,6E)-2,6-Dibenzylidenecyclohexanone is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies (2E,6E)-2,6-Dibenzylidenecyclohexanone (CAS 42052-61-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C20H18O, MW 274.36 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (2E,6E)-2,6-Dibenzylidenecyclohexanone (C20H18O) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2E,6E)-2,6-Dibenzylidenecyclohexanone meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
