Chemical Structure

2-Hexyl-4-pentynoic Acid CAS 96017-59-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Hexyl-4-pentynoic Acid.

CATO supplies 2-Hexyl-4-pentynoic Acid (CAS 96017-59-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H18O2, MW 182.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Hexyl-4-pentynoic Acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
