Chemical Structure

5-Hexyl-5-methylhydantoin CAS 5336-03-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 198.26 g/mol gives 5-Hexyl-5-methylhydantoin distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5-Hexyl-5-methylhydantoin (CAS 5336-03-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H18N2O2 and a molecular weight of 198.26 g/mol.

5-Hexyl-5-methylhydantoin (C10H18N2O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

CATO manufactures 5-Hexyl-5-methylhydantoin under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
