Chemical Structure

2-(3-Hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)phenol CAS 4167-73-1 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2-(3-Hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)phenol (C11H16O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 180.24 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

2-(3-Hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)phenol (CAS 4167-73-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H16O2 and a molecular weight of 180.24 g/mol.

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