2-Methoxy-4-Methylphenol CAS 93-51-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Methoxy-4-Methylphenol (CAS 93-51-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10O2, MW 138.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Methoxy-4-Methylphenol (C8H10O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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-Methoxy-4-Methylphenol 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.
