Chemical Structure

2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)benzene-1,4-diol CAS 52590-98-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)benzene-1,4-diol (CAS 52590-98-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H20O4, MW 252.31 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, 2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)benzene-1,4-diol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 252.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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 2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)benzene-1,4-diol 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.
