Chemical Structure

5-(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid CAS 951894-30-7 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 5-(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid (CAS 951894-30-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H18O3, MW 234.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 5-(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid (C14H18O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures 5-(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
