Chemical Structure

4-Octylphenol Monoethoxylate CAS 51437-89-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Octylphenol Monoethoxylate.

CATO supplies 4-Octylphenol Monoethoxylate (CAS 51437-89-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H26O2, MW 250.38 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C16H26O2, 4-Octylphenol Monoethoxylate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 250.38 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Octylphenol Monoethoxylate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
