Chemical Structure

2,6-Bis(4-methoxybenzylidene)cyclohexanone CAS 6275-32-7 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 2,6-Bis(4-methoxybenzylidene)cyclohexanone.

2,6-Bis(4-methoxybenzylidene)cyclohexanone (CAS 6275-32-7), molecular formula C22H22O3 and molecular weight 334.41 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C22H22O3, 2,6-Bis(4-methoxybenzylidene)cyclohexanone contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 334.41 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 2,6-Bis(4-methoxybenzylidene)cyclohexanone 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.
