Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-1-oxopropan-2-yl cyclohexanecarboxylate CAS 55623-56-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 198.26 g/mol gives 2-Methyl-1-oxopropan-2-yl cyclohexanecarboxylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Methyl-1-oxopropan-2-yl cyclohexanecarboxylate (CAS 55623-56-8), molecular formula C11H18O3 and molecular weight 198.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Methyl-1-oxopropan-2-yl cyclohexanecarboxylate (C11H18O3) contains a carboxylic acid 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.

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.
