Chemical Structure

2-(sec-butyl)-5-methylphenol CAS 29472-95-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 164.24 g/mol gives 2-(sec-butyl)-5-methylphenol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(sec-butyl)-5-methylphenol (CAS 29472-95-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H16O and a molecular weight of 164.24 g/mol.

2-(sec-butyl)-5-methylphenol (C11H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures 2-(sec-butyl)-5-methylphenol 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.
