Chemical Structure

2,5,5-Trimethylhexan-2-ol CAS 66793-71-3 chemical structure

Description

2,5,5-Trimethylhexan-2-ol (CAS 66793-71-3), molecular formula C9H20O and molecular weight 144.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,5,5-Trimethylhexan-2-ol (C9H20O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.

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), 2,5,5-Trimethylhexan-2-ol 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.
