Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 2-methyl-4-propan-2-yloxybenzoate.
Methyl 2-methyl-4-propan-2-yloxybenzoate (CAS 175153-41-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16O3 and a molecular weight of 208.25 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 2-methyl-4-propan-2-yloxybenzoate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
