Chemical Structure

2-(3,5-Dimethylphenoxy)-2-methylpropanoic acid CAS 76674-31-2 chemical structure

Description

2-(3,5-Dimethylphenoxy)-2-methylpropanoic acid (C12H16O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, 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).
