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 5-tert-Butyl-1,2,3-trimethylbenzene (CAS 98-23-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H6O4, MW 130.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, 5-tert-Butyl-1,2,3-trimethylbenzene is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 130.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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 5-tert-Butyl-1,2,3-trimethylbenzene 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.
