Chemical Structure

(2-Hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)(phenyl)methanone CAS 3098-18-8 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2-Hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)(phenyl)methanone 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.

(2-Hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)(phenyl)methanone (CAS 3098-18-8), molecular formula C14H12O2 and molecular weight 212.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(2-Hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)(phenyl)methanone (C14H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic 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.
