Chemical Structure

3-Butyl-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-one CAS 56745-22-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-Butyl-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS 56745-22-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H20O and a molecular weight of 180.29 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-Butyl-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (C12H20O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
