Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-2-[4-(2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]propanoic acid CAS 1183487-83-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol gives 2-Methyl-2-[4-(2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]propanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Methyl-2-[4-(2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]propanoic acid (CAS 1183487-83-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H20O3 and a molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol.

2-Methyl-2-[4-(2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]propanoic acid (C14H20O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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.

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.
