Chemical Structure

4-Isopentylbenzaldehyde CAS 84682-18-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 176.25 g/mol gives 4-Isopentylbenzaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-Isopentylbenzaldehyde (CAS 84682-18-8), molecular formula C12H16O and molecular weight 176.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-Isopentylbenzaldehyde (C12H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

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.
