Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 314.31 g/mol gives Tris(4-methylpentan-2-yl) borate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Tris(4-methylpentan-2-yl) borate (CAS 5337-37-1), molecular formula C18H39BO3 and molecular weight 314.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Tris(4-methylpentan-2-yl) borate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 314.31 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.
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
CATO manufactures Tris(4-methylpentan-2-yl) borate 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.
