2-Ethyl-1-Butene (CAS 760-21-4), molecular formula C6H12 and molecular weight 84.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 2-Ethyl-1-Butene (C6H12) is characterized by an organic framework. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its non-polar molecular character, 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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
