Chemical Structure

6,6-Dimethyl-2-cyclohexenone CAS 6553-64-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 6,6-Dimethyl-2-cyclohexenone (CAS 6553-64-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H12O, MW 124.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 6,6-Dimethyl-2-cyclohexenone (C8H12O) 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 124.18 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6,6-Dimethyl-2-cyclohexenone 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.
