Chemical Structure

2-tert-Butyltoluene CAS 1074-92-6 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.

2-tert-Butyltoluene (CAS 1074-92-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H16 and a molecular weight of 148.24 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-tert-Butyltoluene (C11H16) contains an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 148.24 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. 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 manufactures 2-tert-Butyltoluene 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.
