Chemical Structure

2-Methylcyclohexanone CAS 583-60-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 112.17 g/mol gives 2-Methylcyclohexanone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Methylcyclohexanone (CAS 583-60-8), molecular formula C7H12O and molecular weight 112.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C7H12O, 2-Methylcyclohexanone contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 112.17 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.
