Chemical Structure

(3,5-Dimethylphenyl)(m-tolyl)methanol CAS 16134-72-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (3,5-Dimethylphenyl)(m-tolyl)methanol.

(3,5-Dimethylphenyl)(m-tolyl)methanol (CAS 16134-72-8), molecular formula C16H18O and molecular weight 226.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, (3,5-Dimethylphenyl)(m-tolyl)methanol is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 226.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures (3,5-Dimethylphenyl)(m-tolyl)methanol 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.
