Chemical Structure

3,5-di-tert-butyltoluene CAS 15181-11-0 chemical structure

Description

3,5-di-tert-butyltoluene (CAS 15181-11-0), molecular formula C15H30 and molecular weight 210.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C15H30, 3,5-di-tert-butyltoluene contains an organic framework; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 210.40 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.

CATO manufactures 3,5-di-tert-butyltoluene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
