Chemical Structure

2,7-Dimethyl-4-octen-3,6-dion CAS 62738-21-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,7-Dimethyl-4-octen-3,6-dion.

CATO supplies 2,7-Dimethyl-4-octen-3,6-dion (CAS 62738-21-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H16O2, MW 168.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,7-Dimethyl-4-octen-3,6-dion (C10H16O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,7-Dimethyl-4-octen-3,6-dion meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
