1-[4-Hydroxy-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]ethan-1-one CAS 37847-37-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-[4-Hydroxy-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]ethan-1-one 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.

CATO supplies 1-[4-Hydroxy-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]ethan-1-one (CAS 37847-37-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H16O2, MW 192.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

1-[4-Hydroxy-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]ethan-1-one (C12H16O2) 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.

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.
