Chemical Structure

2-Tert-Butylphenol CAS 88-18-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 150.22 g/mol gives 2-Tert-Butylphenol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Tert-Butylphenol (CAS 88-18-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H14O and a molecular weight of 150.22 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-Tert-Butylphenol (C10H14O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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

CATO manufactures 2-Tert-Butylphenol 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.
