Chemical Structure

1-(3-(Tert-butyl)phenyl)ethan-1-ol CAS 71522-57-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 178.27 g/mol gives 1-(3-(Tert-butyl)phenyl)ethan-1-ol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1-(3-(Tert-butyl)phenyl)ethan-1-ol (CAS 71522-57-1), molecular formula C12H18O and molecular weight 178.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 1-(3-(Tert-butyl)phenyl)ethan-1-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 178.27 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
