Chemical Structure

2-{[4-(propan-2-yl)phenoxy]methyl}benzoic acid CAS 77389-64-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-{[4-(propan-2-yl)phenoxy]methyl}benzoic acid is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-{[4-(propan-2-yl)phenoxy]methyl}benzoic acid (CAS 77389-64-1), molecular formula C17H18O3 and molecular weight 270.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-{[4-(propan-2-yl)phenoxy]methyl}benzoic acid (C17H18O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-{[4-(propan-2-yl)phenoxy]methyl}benzoic acid 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.
