Chemical Structure

2-ethylcyclopentan-1-one CAS 4971-18-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-ethylcyclopentan-1-one is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-ethylcyclopentan-1-one (CAS 4971-18-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H12O and a molecular weight of 112.17 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C7H12O, 2-ethylcyclopentan-1-one contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 112.17 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.
