Application

3,5-Dimethylphenol was used in simultaneous determination of urinary concentrations of phenol, o-, p-, m-cresols, 1-, 2-naphthol and xylenol isomers by capillary gas chromatography[1]. It was used as starting reagent for total synthesis of landomycin A, most potent antitumor angucycline antibiotic[2] and optically active polypropionate units[3].

Optically active polypropionate units were synthesized in 9-11 steps from 3,5-dimethylphenol. The sequence consists of the Buchner reaction controlled by a chiral 2,4-pentanediol tether and diastereoselective hydrogenation over Raney nickel. [reaction: see text]

The first total synthesis of landomycin A, the longest and most potent antitumor angucycline antibiotic, has been achieved in 63 steps and 0.34% overall yield starting from 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 3,5-dimethylphenol, triacetyl d-glucal, and d-xylose, with a convergent linear sequence of

A strategy for the determination of the presence of thiol-containing amino acids was successfully established by simply assembling copper chloride and xylenol orange (3,3'-bis[N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)aminomethyl]-o-cresolsulfonephthalein trisodium salt; XO) in a 1 : 1 molar ratio in quasi-physiological water solution (pH 6.0).

In recent years, magnetic-resonance imaging of gelatin doped with the Fricke solution has been applied to the direct measurement of three-dimensional (3D) radiation dose distributions. However, the 3D dose distribution can also be imaged more economically and efficiently using the

Natural oxidation is an undesirable process suffered by gel dosimetry systems as it changes the values and spatial distribution of absorbed doses. Natural oxidation of Fricke xylenol gel (FXG) dosimeter was inferred from optical absorbance values measured for the first

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
