Chemical Structure

(2S,3R)-2-Methyl-3-(p-tolyl)oxirane CAS 59168-87-5 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of (2S,3R)-2-Methyl-3-(p-tolyl)oxirane (C10H12O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies (2S,3R)-2-Methyl-3-(p-tolyl)oxirane (CAS 59168-87-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H12O, MW 148.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
