Chemical Structure
Description
4-Methoxy-2-Methylphenol, 97% (CAS 5307-05-1), molecular formula C8H10O2 and molecular weight 138.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C8H10O2, 4-Methoxy-2-Methylphenol, 97% 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 138.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
