Chemical Structure

5-Methyl-2-Propylphenol CAS 31143-55-2 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 5-Methyl-2-Propylphenol.

5-Methyl-2-Propylphenol (CAS 31143-55-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H14O and a molecular weight of 150.22 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 5-Methyl-2-Propylphenol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 150.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), 5-Methyl-2-Propylphenol 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.
