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 2,5-Dimethyl-3-(4-methylphenyl)propiophenone (CAS 898768-81-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H20O, MW 252.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,5-Dimethyl-3-(4-methylphenyl)propiophenone is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 252.35 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
CATO manufactures 2,5-Dimethyl-3-(4-methylphenyl)propiophenone 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.
