1-(3-(Tert-butyl)-2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)butan-1-one (CAS 1274009-70-9), molecular formula C15H22O2 and molecular weight 234.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 1-(3-(Tert-butyl)-2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)butan-1-one (C15H22O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
