4-Ethylpiperidine-2,6-dione (CAS 78265-96-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H11NO2 and a molecular weight of 141.17 g/mol.
Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Ethylpiperidine-2,6-dione is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 141.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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), 4-Ethylpiperidine-2,6-dione 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.
