Chemical Structure

Bis(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)methanol CAS 16607-60-6 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 Bis(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)methanol.

Bis(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)methanol (CAS 16607-60-6), molecular formula C21H28O and molecular weight 296.45 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Bis(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)methanol (C21H28O) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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 Bis(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)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.
