Chemical Structure

2,2,4,4-Tetramethyloctane CAS 62183-79-3 chemical structure

Description

2,2,4,4-Tetramethyloctane (CAS 62183-79-3), molecular formula C12H26 and molecular weight 170.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2,2,4,4-Tetramethyloctane (C12H26) contains an organic framework. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 170.33 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 2,2,4,4-Tetramethyloctane under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
