Chemical Structure

2-(tert-Butyl)-4-(3-hydroxypropyl)-6-methylphenol CAS 75546-54-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-(tert-Butyl)-4-(3-hydroxypropyl)-6-methylphenol 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-(tert-Butyl)-4-(3-hydroxypropyl)-6-methylphenol (CAS 75546-54-2), molecular formula C14H22O2 and molecular weight 222.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-(tert-Butyl)-4-(3-hydroxypropyl)-6-methylphenol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.32 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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