Chemical Structure

4,4'-(Butane-1,4-diylbis(oxy))bis(butan-1-ol) CAS 4161-33-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4,4'-(Butane-1,4-diylbis(oxy))bis(butan-1-ol) is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 234.33 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.

4,4'-(Butane-1,4-diylbis(oxy))bis(butan-1-ol) (CAS 4161-33-5), molecular formula C12H26O4 and molecular weight 234.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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