Chemical Structure

2-(4-Ethoxy-2-methylphenyl)ethan-1-ol CAS 1379259-14-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(4-Ethoxy-2-methylphenyl)ethan-1-ol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(4-Ethoxy-2-methylphenyl)ethan-1-ol (CAS 1379259-14-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H16O2 and a molecular weight of 180.24 g/mol.

2-(4-Ethoxy-2-methylphenyl)ethan-1-ol (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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(4-Ethoxy-2-methylphenyl)ethan-1-ol 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.
