Product Description

Detailed information about the product

Product Overview

tert-Amyl Alcohol 99.5% AR (CAS No. 75-85-4) is a branched tertiary alcohol combining a polar hydroxyl group with a compact five-carbon organic structure. This molecular balance provides useful solvency for compatible organic substances and supports studies involving solution behaviour, phase distribution, and tertiary-alcohol chemistry.

The AR grade is intended for analytical reagent preparation, quality-control testing, research, and laboratory procedures requiring controlled composition and consistent solvent quality. It is suitable for preparing compatible analytical solutions, conducting solubility and partition studies, and serving as a reaction or extraction medium in appropriately validated procedures.

Typical Applications

  • Solvent for compatible analytical reagents and sample solutions
  • Preparation of organic laboratory solutions and reagent mixtures
  • Solubility and solution-behaviour studies
  • Liquid–liquid partition and phase-distribution investigations
  • Extraction of suitable organic substances
  • Reaction medium in analytical and research procedures

Common Synonyms

  • 2-Methyl-2-butanol
  • 2-Methylbutan-2-ol
  • tert-Pentyl Alcohol
  • Tertiary Amyl Alcohol
  • Dimethylethylcarbinol
  • TAA

Storage Conditions

Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location. Protect the product from heat, direct sunlight, ignition sources, evaporation, and contamination. Reseal the container promptly after dispensing to preserve its composition and analytical reagent quality.
