2-Cyclohexylcyclohexanone CAS 90-42-6 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Cyclohexylcyclohexanone 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.

CATO supplies 2-Cyclohexylcyclohexanone (CAS 90-42-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H20O, MW 180.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C12H20O, 2-Cyclohexylcyclohexanone contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 180.29 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
