Chemical Structure

Cyclopropyl(2,5-dimethylphenyl)methanol CAS 78987-81-2 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 Cyclopropyl(2,5-dimethylphenyl)methanol.

Cyclopropyl(2,5-dimethylphenyl)methanol (CAS 78987-81-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16O and a molecular weight of 176.25 g/mol.

Structurally, Cyclopropyl(2,5-dimethylphenyl)methanol (C12H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 176.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

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.
