4,6-Dimethyldodecane (CAS 61141-72-8), molecular formula C14H30 and molecular weight 198.39 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
4,6-Dimethyldodecane (C14H30) contains an organic framework. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.
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.
