4-(3-Hydroxypropyl)-2,6-dimethylphenol CAS 122004-95-9 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.

4-(3-Hydroxypropyl)-2,6-dimethylphenol (CAS 122004-95-9), molecular formula C11H16O2 and molecular weight 180.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-(3-Hydroxypropyl)-2,6-dimethylphenol (C11H16O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(3-Hydroxypropyl)-2,6-dimethylphenol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
