Chemical Structure

2-Isopropylbenzaldehyde CAS 6502-22-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Isopropylbenzaldehyde is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Isopropylbenzaldehyde (CAS 6502-22-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O and a molecular weight of 148.20 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-Isopropylbenzaldehyde (C10H12O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 148.20 g/mol, it falls into the low-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.

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.
