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 4-(tert-Butyl)-2-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzaldehyde.
4-(tert-Butyl)-2-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzaldehyde (CAS 2641590-63-6), molecular formula C12H16O3 and molecular weight 208.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 4-(tert-Butyl)-2-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzaldehyde (C12H16O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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 4-(tert-Butyl)-2-hydroxy-6-methoxybenzaldehyde 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.
