Chemical Structure

trans-4-(2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid CAS 736136-23-5 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 trans-4-(2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid.

trans-4-(2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid (CAS 736136-23-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H20O3 and a molecular weight of 260.33 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C16H20O3, trans-4-(2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 260.33 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.

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.

CATO manufactures trans-4-(2,4-Dimethylbenzoyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
