Chemical Structure

(4-Butoxy-3-methoxyphenyl)methanol CAS 831188-44-4 chemical structure

Description

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

(4-Butoxy-3-methoxyphenyl)methanol (CAS 831188-44-4), molecular formula C12H18O3 and molecular weight 210.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (4-Butoxy-3-methoxyphenyl)methanol (C12H18O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 210.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (4-Butoxy-3-methoxyphenyl)methanol 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.
