Chemical Structure

(4-(4-(Tert-butyl)phenoxy)phenyl)methanol CAS 1037141-25-5 chemical structure

Description

(4-(4-(Tert-butyl)phenoxy)phenyl)methanol (C17H20O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies (4-(4-(Tert-butyl)phenoxy)phenyl)methanol (CAS 1037141-25-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H20O2, MW 256.34 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
