Ethyl 4,4-dimethyl-3-oxohexanoate (CAS 857781-05-6), molecular formula C10H18O3 and molecular weight 186.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Ethyl 4,4-dimethyl-3-oxohexanoate (C10H18O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.
