Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-cyano-2-propylpentanoate CAS 66546-92-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 2-cyano-2-propylpentanoate is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 2-cyano-2-propylpentanoate (CAS 66546-92-7), molecular formula C10H17NO2 and molecular weight 183.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H17NO2, Methyl 2-cyano-2-propylpentanoate contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 183.25 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.

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), Methyl 2-cyano-2-propylpentanoate 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.
