(2-Methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-2-yl)methanol CAS 16163-83-0 chemical structure

Description

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

(2-Methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-2-yl)methanol (CAS 16163-83-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O3 and a molecular weight of 180.20 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (2-Methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-2-yl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 180.20 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).

CATO manufactures (2-Methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-2-yl)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.
