Chemical Structure

2,3,5-trimethylbenzene-1,4-diol CAS 700-13-0 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 2,3,5-trimethylbenzene-1,4-diol (CAS 700-13-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H12O2, MW 152.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,3,5-trimethylbenzene-1,4-diol (C9H12O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,3,5-trimethylbenzene-1,4-diol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
