CATO supplies 4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-2-[3-(2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (CAS 1338916-31-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H25BO3, MW 276.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C16H25BO3, 4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-2-[3-(2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]-1,3,2-dioxaborolane contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 276.18 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
