Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (1-Ethyl-1-methylpropyl)benzene.
(1-Ethyl-1-methylpropyl)benzene (CAS 1985-97-3), molecular formula C12H18 and molecular weight 162.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, (1-Ethyl-1-methylpropyl)benzene (C12H18) contains an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 162.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
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.
