Chemical Structure

3-Methylpentanoyl Chloride CAS 51116-72-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 134.60 g/mol gives 3-Methylpentanoyl Chloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-Methylpentanoyl Chloride (CAS 51116-72-4), molecular formula C6H11ClO and molecular weight 134.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-Methylpentanoyl Chloride (C6H11ClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
