2-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]oxirane CAS 99333-91-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]oxirane (CAS 99333-91-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H16O, MW 176.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]oxirane (C12H16O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 176.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]oxirane meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
