Chemical Structure

2-Methoxybiphenyl CAS 86-26-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-Methoxybiphenyl under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

2-Methoxybiphenyl (CAS 86-26-0), molecular formula C13H12O and molecular weight 184.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Methoxybiphenyl (C13H12O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 184.23 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.

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