2-bromo-4-(tert-butyl)-6-methylphenol CAS 20834-60-0

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 243.14 g/mol gives 2-bromo-4-(tert-butyl)-6-methylphenol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-bromo-4-(tert-butyl)-6-methylphenol (CAS 20834-60-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H15BrO and a molecular weight of 243.14 g/mol.

2-bromo-4-(tert-butyl)-6-methylphenol (C11H15BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-bromo-4-(tert-butyl)-6-methylphenol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
