Chemical Structure

4-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-pentanol CAS 7779-78-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-pentanol.

CATO supplies 4-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-pentanol (CAS 7779-78-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H18O, MW 178.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-pentanol 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-pentanol 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.
