[2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclobutyl]methanol (CAS 5140-07-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H12O2 and a molecular weight of 116.16 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, [2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclobutyl]methanol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 116.16 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.
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.
