3-(5,5-Dimethyl-6-methylenebicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)cyclohexan-1-ol CAS 68141-24-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-(5,5-Dimethyl-6-methylenebicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)cyclohexan-1-ol.

3-(5,5-Dimethyl-6-methylenebicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)cyclohexan-1-ol (CAS 68141-24-2), molecular formula C16H26O and molecular weight 234.38 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 3-(5,5-Dimethyl-6-methylenebicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)cyclohexan-1-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 234.38 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 3-(5,5-Dimethyl-6-methylenebicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)cyclohexan-1-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.
