Chemical Structure

Methyl cedrylketone CAS 73398-84-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 248.40 g/mol gives Methyl cedrylketone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Methyl cedrylketone (CAS 73398-84-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H28O, MW 248.40 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Methyl cedrylketone (C17H28O) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 248.40 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.

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 cedrylketone 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.
