Chemical Structure

2-(tert-Butyl)benzaldehyde CAS 16358-79-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 162.23 g/mol gives 2-(tert-Butyl)benzaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(tert-Butyl)benzaldehyde (CAS 16358-79-5), molecular formula C11H14O and molecular weight 162.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(tert-Butyl)benzaldehyde (C11H14O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

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.
