Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoate CAS 873005-17-5 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.

CATO supplies tert-Butyl 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoate (CAS 873005-17-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H15NO4, MW 237.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of tert-Butyl 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoate (C12H15NO4) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures tert-Butyl 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoate 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.
