Chemical Structure

2,2-dimethyloctan-3-one CAS 5340-64-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,2-dimethyloctan-3-one is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2,2-dimethyloctan-3-one (CAS 5340-64-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H20O, MW 156.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2,2-dimethyloctan-3-one (C10H20O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.

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.
