Chemical Structure

3-(4-Ethylphenyl)-2,2-dimethylpropanal CAS 67634-15-5 chemical structure

Description

3-(4-Ethylphenyl)-2,2-dimethylpropanal (CAS 67634-15-5), molecular formula C13H18O and molecular weight 190.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 3-(4-Ethylphenyl)-2,2-dimethylpropanal is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 190.28 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.

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.
