Chemical Structure

4-(1-Hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-yl)benzaldehyde CAS 874775-95-8 chemical structure

Description

4-(1-Hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-yl)benzaldehyde (CAS 874775-95-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H14O2 and a molecular weight of 178.23 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-(1-Hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-yl)benzaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 178.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(1-Hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-yl)benzaldehyde 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.
