Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO supplies 2-Methyl-2-Heptanol (CAS 625-25-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H18O, MW 130.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C8H18O, 2-Methyl-2-Heptanol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 130.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.
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.
