2,4-Dimethylbenzene-1,3-diol CAS 634-65-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2,4-Dimethylbenzene-1,3-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.

2,4-Dimethylbenzene-1,3-diol (CAS 634-65-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H10O2 and a molecular weight of 138.16 g/mol.

2,4-Dimethylbenzene-1,3-diol (C8H10O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
