Chemical Structure

1-Phenyl-2-methylbutane CAS 3968-85-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-Phenyl-2-methylbutane is closely related to an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-Phenyl-2-methylbutane (CAS 3968-85-2), molecular formula C11H16 and molecular weight 148.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1-Phenyl-2-methylbutane (C11H16) contains 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 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
