Chemical Structure

(Z)-2,5-dimethylhex-3-ene-2,5-diol CAS 6117-86-8 chemical structure

Description

(Z)-2,5-dimethylhex-3-ene-2,5-diol (C8H16O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

(Z)-2,5-dimethylhex-3-ene-2,5-diol (CAS 6117-86-8), molecular formula C8H16O2 and molecular weight 144.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
