Chemical Structure

4-tert-Butyl-3,5-dimethylbenzophenone CAS 55709-39-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-tert-Butyl-3,5-dimethylbenzophenone is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-tert-Butyl-3,5-dimethylbenzophenone (CAS 55709-39-2), molecular formula C19H22O and molecular weight 266.38 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C19H22O, 4-tert-Butyl-3,5-dimethylbenzophenone contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 266.38 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.
