2-Methylbenzyl Alcohol CAS 89-95-2 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.

2-Methylbenzyl Alcohol (CAS 89-95-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H10O and a molecular weight of 122.16 g/mol.

2-Methylbenzyl Alcohol (C8H10O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

CATO manufactures 2-Methylbenzyl Alcohol 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.
