Chemical Structure

1,4-Di-tert-butylbenzene CAS 1012-72-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,4-Di-tert-butylbenzene is closely related to an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 1,4-Di-tert-butylbenzene (CAS 1012-72-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H22, MW 190.32 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1,4-Di-tert-butylbenzene (C14H22) 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 1,4-Di-tert-butylbenzene 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.
