Chemical Structure

M-tolyl(p-tolyl)methanol CAS 13389-73-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 212.29 g/mol gives M-tolyl(p-tolyl)methanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

M-tolyl(p-tolyl)methanol (CAS 13389-73-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H16O and a molecular weight of 212.29 g/mol.

The molecular framework of M-tolyl(p-tolyl)methanol (C15H16O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic 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).

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.
