Chemical Structure

3-(2,4-Dimethylphenyl)prop-2-yn-1-ol CAS 16017-31-5 chemical structure

Description

3-(2,4-Dimethylphenyl)prop-2-yn-1-ol (CAS 16017-31-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H12O and a molecular weight of 160.21 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 3-(2,4-Dimethylphenyl)prop-2-yn-1-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 160.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
