Chemical Structure

2,2,2,5-Tetramethylbutyrophenone CAS 898765-58-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,2,2,5-Tetramethylbutyrophenone is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2,2,2,5-Tetramethylbutyrophenone (CAS 898765-58-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H20O, MW 204.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2,2,2,5-Tetramethylbutyrophenone is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 204.31 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
