4-(4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid CAS 52245-99-5

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 222.24 g/mol gives 4-(4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 4-(4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 52245-99-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H14O4, MW 222.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-(4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.24 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.

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-(4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoic acid 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.
