Chemical Structure

2,4-Di-tert-butyl-6-chlorophenol CAS 4166-86-3 chemical structure

Description

2,4-Di-tert-butyl-6-chlorophenol (CAS 4166-86-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H21ClO and a molecular weight of 240.77 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2,4-Di-tert-butyl-6-chlorophenol (C14H21ClO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

CATO manufactures 2,4-Di-tert-butyl-6-chlorophenol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
