Chemical Structure

2,2-Dimethylhexan-3-one CAS 5405-79-8 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,2-Dimethylhexan-3-one 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.

2,2-Dimethylhexan-3-one (CAS 5405-79-8), molecular formula C8H16O and molecular weight 128.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,2-Dimethylhexan-3-one is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 128.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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.
