Chemical Structure

4-(2,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2-methylbutanoic acid CAS 30316-14-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(2,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2-methylbutanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-(2,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2-methylbutanoic acid (CAS 30316-14-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H18O2, MW 206.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-(2,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2-methylbutanoic acid (C13H18O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(2,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2-methylbutanoic acid 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.
