Chemical Structure

2-Hexyl-2-methyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane CAS 55668-45-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 265.35 g/mol gives 2-Hexyl-2-methyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Hexyl-2-methyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane (CAS 55668-45-6), molecular formula C15H23NO3 and molecular weight 265.35 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Hexyl-2-methyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane (C15H23NO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 265.35 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Hexyl-2-methyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane 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.
