Chemical Structure

1-(4-methylphenyl)butan-2-ol CAS 110661-89-7 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 1-(4-methylphenyl)butan-2-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 164.24 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.

CATO supplies 1-(4-methylphenyl)butan-2-ol (CAS 110661-89-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H16O, MW 164.24 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.
