Chemical Structure

Methyl 2,6-dimethyl-1-oxaspiro[2.5]octane-2-carboxylate CAS 78258-29-4 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 2,6-dimethyl-1-oxaspiro[2.5]octane-2-carboxylate (CAS 78258-29-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H18O3 and a molecular weight of 198.26 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 2,6-dimethyl-1-oxaspiro[2.5]octane-2-carboxylate (C11H18O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2,6-dimethyl-1-oxaspiro[2.5]octane-2-carboxylate 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.
