Chemical Structure

1,5,5-Trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one CAS 6541-58-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 1,5,5-Trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one (CAS 6541-58-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H16O, MW 152.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 1,5,5-Trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one (C10H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 152.23 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.

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.
