Chemical Structure

2-(tert-Butyl)malonaldehyde CAS 55740-28-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(tert-Butyl)malonaldehyde.

2-(tert-Butyl)malonaldehyde (CAS 55740-28-8), molecular formula C7H12O2 and molecular weight 128.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(tert-Butyl)malonaldehyde (C7H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 128.17 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range.

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.
