Chemical Structure

1-Methyl-3-(2-methylcyclohexyl) Benzene (2,3 MCHT) CAS 93536-68-6 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 1-Methyl-3-(2-methylcyclohexyl) Benzene (2,3 MCHT) (CAS 93536-68-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H20, MW 188.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-Methyl-3-(2-methylcyclohexyl) Benzene (2,3 MCHT) (C14H20) is characterized by an aromatic ring system. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Methyl-3-(2-methylcyclohexyl) Benzene (2,3 MCHT) 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.
