Chemical Structure

5-(2-Hydroxypropan-2-yl)-2-methylcyclohex-2-enol CAS 498-71-5 chemical structure

Description

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.

5-(2-Hydroxypropan-2-yl)-2-methylcyclohex-2-enol (CAS 498-71-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H18O2 and a molecular weight of 170.25 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 5-(2-Hydroxypropan-2-yl)-2-methylcyclohex-2-enol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 170.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(2-Hydroxypropan-2-yl)-2-methylcyclohex-2-enol 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.
